Explanation
The function of an AP that performs this translation between the wireless network and the wired network (as with M and P) is called the portal. The portal is a function. It is just the logical point where wireless MSDUs are translated to and from a non-802.11 network (802.11-2007, def 3.39 and 3.110). An AP commonly performs the portal function. M, and P are APs and portals. https://s2.smu.edu/~camp/pubs/mesh80211s.pdf
