Guest network but at wds client/ap

I have two openwrt routers. One is acting as the main router while the other one is wds client since I can't use wire as a backhaul and so far it's doing great. due to a few security concerns, I have also defined a guest network at my main router and now broadcasting new wireless for the guest network as well. but since there are no wires I can't vlan the guest network to my ap since it's working as wds client. is there a way to get my guest network across to wds client so I can broadcast the guest network over there as well?

Yes, but you need to create a tunnel between the routers; I have used GRE in the past, but now I will probably try with VXLAN.

it worked, there is a simple luci packages for it as well. You just need to put local and remote addresses and bind to the already existing network on both routers (lan) . then you just need to add the vxlan adapter in the guest network bridge and voila it just works.

ill marks this solved now.
