Cisco 胖AP桥接设置案例图文详细教程

 桥接网络一般是解决光纤无法到达的无奈之举，Cisco的桥接链路技术比较成熟，稳定性实测还可以，用的也很普遍。
本文介绍Cisco FAT AP桥接配置实例，我使用的是3台Cisco 1532E 胖AP，软件版本是C1530 Software (ap1g3-K9W7-M), Version 15.2(4)JB3b，其它版本也应该通用。

配置实例
本文只列举了5.8G桥接的主要配置信息，2.4G桥接同理。

root AP配置
dot11 ssid TEST5G
authentication open
authentication key-management wpa version 2
wpa-psk ascii passwd5G

interface Dot11Radio1
no ip address
encryption mode ciphers aes-ccm
ssid TEST5G
antenna gain 0
peakdetect
dfs band 3 block
packet retries 64 drop-packet
channel 5765
station-role root bridge
bridge-group 1
bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled

interface BVI1
ip address 172.17.50.111 255.255.255.0

ip default-gateway 172.17.50.1
其它常规配置：略

以上配置的SSID，加密类型，channel，station-role 可根据需要自行修改。
station-role几种常用的选择如下：
station-role root bridge
station-role root bridge wireless-clients
station-role root access-point
station-role root ap-only

mesh1 AP配置
dot11 ssid TEST5G
authentication open
authentication key-management wpa version 2
wpa-psk ascii passwd5G

interface Dot11Radio1
no ip address
encryption mode ciphers aes-ccm
ssid TEST5G
antenna gain 0
peakdetect
packet retries 64 drop-packet
station-role non-root bridge
bridge-group 1
bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled

interface BVI1
ip address 172.17.50.222 255.255.255.0

ip default-gateway 172.17.50.1
其它常规配置：略

以上配置的SSID，加密类型，station-role 同样也可根据需要自行修改。
station-role几种常用的选择如下：
station-role non-root bridge
station-role non-root bridge wireless-clients
station-role non-root wireless-clients
station-role workgroup-bridge

mesh2 AP配置
同mesh1 AP配置，略

桥接链路检查
配置完成后，在root AP上查看，可以看到我的两台mesh AP都已桥接到root AP上。

通过以上测试，就可以知道Root AP和Mesh AP的信号强度，信噪比，重传率等信息。
