Difference Mode Wireless

Difference Mode Wireless

One of the media or the interfaces contained in the proxy and is used to connect one network device to another of them is wireless, there are several wireless modes are used in accordance with its function, whether it wishes functioned as an access point (transmitter) or functioned as a station (receiver), we need to know also that not all modes can be used in the wireless bridge network because not all wireless mode support with L2 bridging primarily as a mode wireless station (receiver)

1. Alignment Mode Only
Alignment mode only, commonly used to help when the indicator pointing to the beeper / buzzer on RouterBoard, for example, we could add a script where when getting a good signal then the beeper will sound.

2. Modes AP-Bridge
AP-bridge mode used as an access point or transmitter that can serve multiple clients or also called PTMP (Point To Multi Point), we can use this mode for network routing or bridging nature. To use the AP-Bridge mode RouterBOARD devices must have a minimum level 4 license.

3. Modes Bridge
Bridge mode is used as an access point or transmitter but could only serve one client or also called PTP (Point To Point), this mode also we can use to network routing or bridging nature. To use this mode RouterBOARD device has at least a level 3 license, for example for the type of product types SXT-Embedded 5.xGHz 5HnD that only licensed level 3, we can make a point to point connection using 2 pieces of the device.

4. Nstreme dual mode slave
Basically working mechanisms on the wireless interface is half duplex, but by using this mode we can enable full duplex mechanism of action, this mode is a proprietary wireless in the proxy, of course, we also need a second wireless card and 2 antennas at each wireless router mikrotik

5. Modes Station
Wireless Mode This station is used as a wireless client / receiver topology PTP (Point To Point) or PTMP (Point To Multi Point), the wireless station mode can only be used to shape the nature of network routing, so this mode is one of the effective mode and fuel-efficient if the wireless client side / station is not required bridging

6. Modes Station-Bridge
Station-Bridge mode is a mode on the wireless interface that serves as a receiver / client and support for the bridge network, needs to know that for this mode can only be used if it Mikrotik AP device as well.

7. Modes Station-Psudobridge
Fashion Station-pseudobridge Modes Station is a development of the standard, the same make as the wireless receiver / client, the difference is in Fashion Station-pseudobridge support to create a network that nature Bridge Network, In the use of this mode where there are consequences for not bridging the L2 can be done in full, in terms mac-address of a device that is under the wireless device (PC end user) is not legible on the side of the Access Point.

8. Modes Station-Pesudobridge-Clone
Fashion Station-pseudobridge-Clone Mode is similar to Station-pseudobridge difference is in this mode can clone the mac-address, usually on a wireless link, which is read on the access point is the mac-address of the wireless client interface, but if using Fashion Station-readable Pesudobridge-Clone is the mac-address of the device connected to the station (end user), readable by default which is the mac-address in the header of the first frame in the forward, or can be specified on the "station-bridge-clone- mac "

9. Fashion Station-WDS
Station-WDS mode serves as a receiver / client of a protocol to enable Access Point WDS, WDS protocol deficiency is a decrease wireless throughput of up to 50%, please note that between one vendor with another vendor WDS function is not necessarily compatible, as well as with WDS the proxy.

10. WDS-Slave Mode
WDS-Slave mode serves as a transmitter (Access Point) as well as the receiver (Station) or also called repeaters, this mode is one solution if you want to build a repeater but owned devices only use 1 card wireless card.
