Chapter 8 Controlling Mesh Access Points
Adding Mesh Access Points to the Mesh Network
c. To provide external authentication on a RADIUS server and define a local MAC filter on the
controller, enter these commands:
config mesh security eap
config macfilter mac-delimiter colon
config mesh security rad-mac-filter enable
config mesh radius-server index enable
config mesh security force-ext-auth enable
d. To provide external authentication on a RADIUS server using a MAC username (such as
c1520-123456) on the RADIUS server, enter these commands:
config macfilter mac-delimiter colon
config mesh security rad-mac-filter enable
config mesh radius-server index enable
config mesh security force-ext-auth enable
Step 5 To save your changes, enter this command:
save config
Using the CLI to View Global Mesh Parameter Settings
Use these commands to obtain information on global mesh settings:
• show mesh client-access—Shows the status of the client-access backhaul as either enabled or
disabled. When this option is enabled, mesh access points are able to associate with 802.11a wireless
clients over the 802.11a backhaul. This client association is in addition to the existing
communication on the 802.11a backhaul between the root and mesh access points.
controller >show mesh client-access
Backhaul with client access status: enabled
• show mesh env {summary | Cisco_AP}—Shows the temperature, heater status, and Ethernet status
for either all access points (summary) or a specific access point (Cisco_AP). The access point name,
role (RootAP or MeshAP), and model are also shown.
–
The temperature is shown in both Fahrenheit and Celsius.
–
The heater status is ON or OFF.
–
The Ethernet status is UP or DOWN.
Note Battery status appears as N/A (not applicable) in the show mesh env Cisco_AP status
display because it is not provided for access points.
