6. To save your changes, click Save. The WLAN configuration window is re-displayed to show
additional configuration fields.
7. In the WDS Pre-shared Key box, type the key.
Note:
The pre-shared key must be 8 to 63 characters long.
The WDS Wireless APs use this pre-shared key to establish a WDS link between them.
Note:
Changing the pre-shared key after the WDS is deployed can be a lengthy process. For more information, see
“Changing the Pre-shared Key in a WDS WLAN Service” on page 11-19.
8. Assign the roles, preferred parents and backup parents to the Wireless AP Radios.
Note:
The roles — parent, child, and both — are assigned to the Radios of the Wireless APs. A Wireless AP may
connect to its parent Wireless AP and children Wireless APs on the same Radio, or on a different Radio.
Similarly, a Wireless AP can have two children operating on two different Radios.
The Radio on which the child Wireless AP operates is determined by the parent Wireless AP.
If the Wireless AP will be serving both as parent and child, you must select both as its role.
