WDS Whitelist Profile

Context

After a WDS whitelist profile is applied to an AP radio, the AP radio can only set up WDS links with neighboring APs whose MAC addresses are in the WDS whitelist profile. If no WDS whitelist profile is applied to an AP radio, the AP radio can establish WDS links with any neighboring APs.
