bridge

interface-config-radio-instance

Configures the client-bridge (CB) parameters for radios with rf-mode set to bridge. When configured as a client bridge, the radio can authenticate and associate to the WLAN hosted on the infrastructure access point. After successfully associating with the infrastructure WLAN, the CB access point switches frames between its bridge radio and wired/wireless client(s) connected either to its GE port(s) or to the other radio, thereby providing the clients access to the infrastructure WLAN resources.

This command configures settings that define the authentication-type and encryption-type used by the CB AP to associate and communicate with the infrastructure AP. It also configures other parameters, such as channel-dwell time, wlan ssid, and so forth.

Note

Note

  • Radios configured to form the client-bridge will not service wireless clients as their RF mode is set to bridge.

  • It is recommended that 6 GHz radios NOT be configured as a client bridge, since throughput is sub-optimal.

Supported in the following platforms:
