it should be mentioned that his feature only works with latest official 
WLAN.WBE.1.6-01243-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1 firmware. i tested 1.7. series 
from qca networking tree and this firmware is missing the wds nullfunc 
service feature. so it seem that 1.6-01243 just added wds support and no 
other firmware will work with it.
