To set up a wireless mesh (network)
The following procedure outlines the Wireless Mesh setup options for a multinode to
operate as a wireless mesh node. The procedure for setting up the three network types is
the same, although you should refer to the appropriate tables when selecting the options.
For example, If you want to set up a point-to-multipoint mesh network using auto mesh,
refer to Table 15 for the correct option settings and use the procedures below to access
the Wireless Mesh screens and select the options. Additional information for all of the
options on the Wireless Mesh screens is found in the following places:
Table 9 Auto Mesh screen options on page 73
Table 10 Manual Mesh screen options on page 75
Table 11 Radio screen options on page 78
Table 12 Encryption screen options on page 81.
This procedure assumes that the multinode is connected to a PC and that you are logged
into the Multinode Configuration Tool.
Step Action
1
At the left of the screen, click on Radio to display the Wireless Mesh - Radio
screen .
2
The MAC Address field shows the MAC address of the WLAN card for this
multinode.
Note: Record this address since it must be entered as the BSSID for other
multinodes that will be communicating with this multinode.
3
Choose the Wireless Mode to be used for wireless mesh, from the drop
down menu.
4
Choose the Tx Rate from the drop down menu.
You can choose AUTO if you want the WLAN card to attempt to select the
optimal transmit rate for the channel. Selecting a fixed Tx rate will enable the
WLAN card to transmit only at that rate.
5
Choose a Channel No . (channel number) from the drop down menu.
Note: The channel number must be set to the same frequency for each mesh
node to communicate. See Table 11 for a listing of available channels.
