Fault-tolerance Point-to-point Bridging Application Fault-tolerance is critical under the point-to-point bridging scenario. Multiple MeshAP Managers and Stations could be setup to backup the vital link between the link. 1 Mesh Manager MB2600/MA3100 Broken Link 5GHz 5GHz RJ-45 Internet Backup Link Ethernet Mesh (RJ-45) Station MA3100 2 (Manual Mode) Mesh Manager High Gain MB2600/MA3100 Directional Antenna Page: 5
