/interface/wifi-<n>-<m>/set backhaul link ([identifier <link-id>]
[topology {p2p|mesh|{star role {bs|ss} index <lnk_idx>}}]
[privacy {{enabled key <pre_shared_key>}|disabled}])
This command configures the backhaul link identifier, the backhaul topology and
backhaul privacy.
The backhaul link identifier identifies all members of a particular topology. The
<link_id>
parameter is case sensitive and can be up to 32 alphanumeric
characters:
• For Point-to-Point (P-to-P) links, BelAir Networks recommends that the
link identifier describes the link; that is, the nodes it connects.
• For Point-to-Multipoint (P-to-MP) or Multipoint-to-Multipoint (MP-to-MP)
links, the link identifier is also known as a mesh identifier. It is the same for
all members of a particular mesh. A suitable link identifier is short phrase
unique to the MP-to-MP mesh, for instance Company x Mesh A or Mesh
Number 23.
When configuring a particular topology, you must configure all members to
have:
• the same channel. Refer to
“Operating Channel” on page 79
for the
appropriate command
• the same link identifier
• the same privacy settings
As well, you must meet the requirements listed in
