Global Mesh Parameters
Parameter
Description
Range (RootAP to MeshAP)
The optimum distance (in feet) that should exist
between the root access point (RAP) and the mesh
access point (MAP). This global parameter
applies to all access points when they join the
controller and all existing access points in the
network.
Range:
150 to 132,000 feet
Default:
12,000 feet
Note
After this feature is enabled, all mesh
access points reboot.
Backhaul Client Access
When this feature is enabled, 1520 series (152x)
mesh access points allow wireless client
association over the 802.11a radio. Therefore, a
152x mesh access point can carry both backhaul
traffic and 802.11a client traffic over the same
802.11a radio.
When this feature is disabled, the 152x carries
backhaul traffic over the 802.11a radio and allows
client association only over the 802.11b/g radio.
Default:
Disabled
Note
After this feature is enabled, all mesh
access points reboot.
