Cisco Mesh Access Points User Manual

If you have two RAPs in your network in the same sector (for more capacity), we recommend that you
configure the two RAPs with the same BGN, but on different channels.
Configuring Bridge Group Names (CLI)
Step 1
To set a bridge group name (BGN), enter this command:
config ap bridgegroupname set group-name ap-name
The mesh access point reboots after a BGN
configuration.
Note
Exercise caution when you configure a BGN on a live network. Always start a BGN assignment from the
farthest-most node (last node, bottom of mesh tree) and move up toward the RAP to ensure that no mesh
access points are dropped due to mixed BGNs (old and new BGNs) within the same network.
Caution
Step 2
To verify the BGN, enter the following command:
show ap config general ap-name
Verifying Bridge Group Names (GUI)
Step 1
Click Wireless > Access Points > AP Name. The details page for the selected mesh access point appears.
Step 2
Click the Mesh tab. Details for the mesh access point including the BGN appears.
Configuring Public Safety Band Settings
A public safety band (4.9 GHz) is supported on the AP1522 and AP1524PS.
