same/similar

NOTE: Remote COVR nodes are pre-synced out of the box.

NOTE: If you will be using a switch in between for Wired/Ethernet Backhaul for the COVR points you will need to

make sure your switch support IEEE 1905.1 protocol. Also when connecting the remote COVR nodes to the switch

you will need to use the Ethernet port on the back of the nodes.
