Radio Rate 

Limiting

This feature lets the operator control the amount of traffic transmitted by the 
radio. In HCI environments, controlling how much traffic each radio transmits, 
lets the operator:

• reduce collisions. If each radio only attempts to use a fraction of the 

available airtime, statistically fewer are attempting to transmit at once and 
collisions are reduced.

• prevent a single AP’s clients from monopolizing the bandwidth and manage 

the distribution of service geographically. APs located in high traffic areas 
can be assigned a higher limit to be shared among many clients. APs in low 
traffic area can be assigned a lower limit to prevent a few clients from 
grabbing a disproportionate share of bandwidth.

For details, see 

“Managing Mesh Bandwidth” on page 117

. 

Automatic Mesh 

Connect

This feature allows BelAir APs to automatically reconnect to a network if they 
lose their egress connection. A cluster of meshed nodes may lose their egress 
connection if the ethernet connection to the exterior network fails or if a node 
fails. In this case, a member of the cluster looks for an alternate mesh to join 
and reconnect the isolated cluster.

In HCI environments, this feature can be use for rapid deployment of a 
network. The APs in a network can be grouped by shared backhaul link 
identifier into a cluster. Multiple clusters can be deployed to control traffic 
flows and optimize backhaul performance.

As soon as one AP in each cluster has an egress path, the whole cluster has 
egress. In the event that an egress fails, a cluster can self-repair by reconnecting 
to one of the other mesh clusters.

Traffic Test Tool

This tool provides an internal mechanism to measure the available traffic 
capacity of the network. The tool reports the throughput on a hop-by-hop 
basis from the node under test to the destination IP address (another node in 
the network).
