Unified Services Router
User Manual

For a WDS link to function properly the Radio settings on the WDS peers have to
be the same.
The WDS page would consist of two sections. The first section provides general WDS
settings shared by all its WDS peers.
WDS Enable
- This would be a check box
WDS Encryption - Displays the type of encryption used. It could be one of OPEN/64
bit WEP/128 bit WEP/TKIP/AES (Use the term being used throughout the box i.e.
either CCMP or AES).
WDS Passphrase
- This is required if the encryption selected is TKIP/CCMP. We
would expect it to be within 8~63 ASCII characters. In the WDS configuration page
this field is mandatory and has to be same on the two WDS peers, when the security is
configured in TKIP/AES mode. The WDS links use this as the PSK for the
connection.
DUT's Mac Address
- This would be the mac address of this box. This should be
configured in the peer's WDS configuration page to be able to establish a WDS link
with this box. This field in the WDS Configuration section displays the device's mac
address, which needs to be specified on the WDS peer for making a connection to this
device (Similarly the WDS peers MAC address will have to be specified on this
device for the WDS link to be established between the two devices).
The second section will have the list of configured WDS peers with buttons to
Add/Delete Peer entries. We support up to a maximum of 4 WDS links per box.
The both devices need to have same wireless settings (wireless mode, encryption,
authentication method, WDS passphrase, WDS MAC address and wireless SSID)
when we configure WDS features in DSR router.
The "Add WDS Peer" section allows the user to specify a WDS peer. The "WDS
Peers" table displays the list of WDS peers currently configured on the device. A
maximum of 4 WDS peers can be specified in any given mode.

Sophisticated wireless administrators can modify the 802.11 communication
parameters in this page. Generally, the default settings are appropriate for most
networks. Please refer to the GUI integrated help text for further details on the use of
each configuration parameter.
