Creating or Modifying a Mesh Radio Profile
Configuration details and any default values for each of these parameters are described in Table 103. If you do
not specify a parameter for a new profile, that profile uses the default value for that parameter. Put the no
option before any parameter to remove the current value for that parameter and return it to its default
setting. Enter exit to leave the mesh radio profile mode.

You can also create a new mesh radio profile by copying the settings of an existing profile using the clone
parameter. Using the clone command to create a new profile makes it easier to keep constant attributes in
common within multiple profiles.
(host)(config) #ap mesh-radio-profile <profile-name> clone <source-profile-name>
Assigning a Mesh Radio Profile to a Mesh AP or AP Group
To associate a mesh radio profile with an AP group, use the following commands. When you add the mesh
cluster profile to the AP group, you must also define the cluster priority.
(host)(config) #ap-group <group>
mesh-radio-profile <profile-name> priority <priority>
To associate a mesh radio profile with an individual AP:
(host)(config) #ap-name <name>
mesh-radio-profile <profile-name> priority <priority>
The following examples assign the mesh cluster profiles cluster1 and cluster2 to two different AP groups. In
the AP group group1, cluster1 has a priority of 5, and cluster2 has a priority of 10, so cluster1 has the
higher priority. In the AP group group2, cluster1 has a priority of 10, and cluster2 has a priority of 5, so
cluster5 has the higher priority.
(host)(config) #group2—cluster1 has a priority of 10, and cluster2 has a priority of 5.
(host)(config) #ap-group group1
mesh-cluster-profile cluster1 priority 5
mesh-cluster-profile cluster2 priority 10
(host)(config) #ap-group2
mesh-cluster-profile cluster1 priority 10
mesh-cluster-profile cluster2 priority 5
Deleting Mesh Radio Profiles
You can delete a mesh radio profile only if no other APs or AP groups use that profile.
