AutoMesh
AutoMesh provides a way to link APs together when wired cabling is not preferable. This also extends
the wireless coverage of the wireless network for the wireless clients.
AutoMesh Settings
Node Type
There are four options:
Auto Detect
,
Wired
,
Wireless
and
Disable
.
Auto Detect
- the unit would check the connectivity to the default gateway via
wired Ethernet to determine the node type. If there is connectivity to the
default gateway, the unit would state its node type as gateway. Otherwise, the
unit would state its node type as node.
Wired
- the unit is expected to be wire connected to provide public network
access to other wireless nodes.
Wireless
- the unit would search for the best gateway or node wirelessly in
order to gain public network access.
Disable
– the unit would not link to any AP.
