Cisco Aironet access points and bridges have two different root modes, in
which to operate the following:
-
Root = ON – The bridge or AP is a root. If it is a bridge, then it
is called the master bridge.
-
Root = OFF – The bridge or AP is not a root.
This setting controls when associations and communication between
different infrastructure devices will be allowed. The meaning of these settings
for wireless bridges and for access points is shown in Figures
