The best way to put several APs on a single wired LAN

Tue Jul 10, 2018 11:40 am

I have a wired lan in a building, and I need to put several MikroTik APs there.

Currently I have put all of the APs in the bridged mode, so they just serve as an WiFi Ap with direct tap in to the local network.

I was wandering there a better, more secure, robust? way to configure the APs?

Currently all APs have the same SSID and password.

Thanks!

Put all the AP's in CAPs Mode and on the main router, configure CAPsMAN, make sure you also set administration passwords on all of the AP's
