Description
This command configures a mesh cluster profile used by mesh nodes.
Syntax
Parameter Description Range Default
<profile>
Name of this instance of the profile. The name
must be 1-63 characters.
— “default”
clone
Name of an existing mesh cluster profile from
which parameter values are copied.
— —
cluster
Indicates the mesh cluster name. The name can
have a maximum of 32 characters, and is used as
the MSSID for the mesh cluster. When you first
create a new mesh cluster profile, the profile
uses the default cluster name “Dell-mesh”. Use
the cluster parameter to define a new, unique
MSSID before you assign APs or AP groups to the
mesh cluster profile.
NOTE: If you want a mesh cluster to use WPA2-
PSK-AES encryption, do not use spaces in the mesh
cluster name, as this may cause errors in mesh
points associated with that mesh cluster.
To view existing mesh cluster profiles, use the CLI
command show ap mesh-cluster-profile.
— “Dell-mesh”
no
Negates any configured parameter. — —
opmode
Configures one of the following types of data
encryption.
l opensystem—No authentication or
encryption.
l wpa2-psk-aes—WPA2 with AES encryption
using a pershared key.
Best practices are to select wpa2-psk-aes and
use the wpa-passphrase parameter to select a
passphrase. Keep the passphrase in a safe place.

wpa2-psk-aes
opensystem
rf-band
Configures the RF band in which multiband mesh
nodes should operate:
a = 5 GHz
g = 2.4 GHz
Best practices are to use 802.11a radios for mesh
deployments.
