Parameter Description
802.11a Transmit Rates
Indicates the transmit rates for the 802.11a radio. The AP attempts to
use the highest transmission rate to establish a mesh link. If a rate is
unavailable, the AP goes through the list and uses the next highest
rate.
802.11g Transmit Rates
Indicates the transmit rates for the 802.11g radio. The AP attempts to
use the highest transmission rate to establish a mesh link. If a rate is
unavailable, the AP goes through the list and uses the next highest
rate.
Allowed VLANs on mesh link
Specify a list of VLAN IDs that can be used by a mesh link on APs
associated with this mesh radio profile
BC/MC Rate Optimization
If enabled, the mesh node will use the slowest associated mesh-point
rate for broadcast/multicast data (rather than minimum).
Heartbeat Threshold
Indicates the maximum number of heartbeat messages that can be
lost between neighboring mesh nodes before the mesh node is
considered inactive and is dropped as a mesh neighbor.
Link Threshold
Indicates the threshold for the lowest acceptable Receive Signal
Strength Indicator (RSSI) value. Links that drop below this threshold will
have an increased link cost. Default: 12.
Maximum Children
The maximum number of children a mesh portal can accept.
Maximum Hop Count
The maximum number of hops allowed between a mesh point and a
mesh portal.
Mesh Private Vlan
This parameter is experimental and reserved for future use.
Mesh High-throughput
SSID Profile
The High-throughput SSID Profile associated with this mesh radio
profile.
Mesh Survivability
This parameter shows if mesh points and portals can become active
even if the controller cannot be reached by bridging LAN traffic. This is
a beta feature that is disabled by default; it should not be enabled
unless you are instructed to do so by Dell technical support.
Metric algorithm
Algorithm used by a mesh node to select its parent.
Rate Optimization
for delivering EAPOL
frames and mesh echoes
If this option is enabled, mesh APs will use a more conservative rate
for more reliable delivery of EAPOL frames.
Reselection Mode
Specifies the one of the following methods used to find a better mesh
link.
l startup-sub-threshold: When bringing up the mesh network,
mesh nodes have 3 minutes to find a better uplink. After that time,
