Step 1
To specify the maximum range (in feet) of all mesh access points in the network, enter this command:
config mesh range feet
To see the current range, enter the show mesh range command.
Step 2
To enable or disable IDS reports for all traffic on the backhaul, enter this command:
config mesh ids-state {enable | disable}
