Syntax
mesh

Enables mesh network on the AP.
Removes the configuration.
Usage Guidelines
Use this command to set up mesh network on an AP. Mesh network requires at least one
valid uplink (wired or 3G) connection. Any provisioned AP that has a valid uplink (wired or
3G) functions as a mesh portal, and the AP without an Ethernet link functions as a mesh
point. The mesh portal can also act as a Virtual Controller. A (MPP uses its uplink
connection to reach the Virtual Controller, a mesh point, or establishes an all wireless path to
the mesh portal. Mesh portals and mesh points are also known as mesh nodes, a generic
term used to describe APs configured for mesh.
Mesh APs detect the environment when they boot up, locate and associate with their nearest
neighbor, to determine the best path to the mesh portal.
SCALANCE W mesh functionality is supported only on dual radio APs only. On dual-radio
APs, the 5 GHz radio is always used for both mesh-backhaul and client traffic, while the 2.4
GHz radio is always used for client traffic.
Note
Mesh service is automatically enabled on 802.11a band for dual
-radio AP only, and this is
The mesh network must be provisioned for the first time by plugging into the wired network.
After that, mesh works on AP ROWs like any other regulatory domain.
Example
The following example enables mesh network on an AP:
(scalance)(config)# mesh
(scalance)(config)# end
(scalance)# commit apply
