Yes, you use this scenario also if do not have more than 64
MAC address. With scenario, the ABO MAC address only can be seen at NOC-APPO.

In addition to this, instead of
using an APPO for the link to the home tower is it possible to use a client
bridge as long as I do not have more than 64 wireless customers on the back
side connecting through the APPO?
NOC -> APPO -> ABO -> APPO
-> Client bridge.

I will be adding a repeater site to
cover a small populated area.
I am planning to use an APPO with an
18dB panel to use as backhaul from my existing AP's and then into another APPO
to use as an access point for subscribers. The backhaul link APPO I plan
to put in client bridge mode and the other in normal access point mode.
Is this correct?
If the single APPO hooks up with the
main tower I will just run one APPO as a repeater. That would be the best
thing that could happen but I do not think I will get sufficient signal to do
this with an omni.
What happens to the ethernet port of
a repeater? Is it possible to run one (the backhaul) APPO as a
repeater, and the other an AP connected together via ethernet? Would the
repeater send the traffic from the AP back to the NOC?
Here are the 3 configs I am
inquiring about.
NOC -> APPO -> APPO(repeater)
-> Client bridges
NOC -> APPO -> APPO(client
bridge) -> APPO -> Client bridges
NOC -> APPO -> APPO(repeater)
-> APPO -> Client bridges
Would the 3rd scenario pass traffic
and also provide me with an additional repeater although pretty directional?
Comments and suggestions
appreciated. I know the first reply I will get will be why I do not put
in a 5.8 GHZ backhaul. The number of potential subscribers does not cost
justify the $$$ for a dedicated backhaul. I plan to erect an additional
tower in that area next year and this scenario will be eliminated so it a
temporary solution. Need to get through the winter.
