Parameter Description Range Default
best-link-
rssi
Selects the parent with the strongest RSSI,
regardless of the number of children a
potential parent has.
— —
distributed-
tree-rssi
Selects the parent based on link-RSSI and
node cost based on the number of children.
This option evenly distributes the mesh
points over high quality uplinks. Low quality
uplinks are selected as a last resort.
— —
mpv
This parameter is experimental and
reserved for future use.
0-4094 0 (disabled)
no
Negates any configured parameter. — —
reselection-mode
Specifies the method used to find a better
mesh link.
Best practices are to use the default value
startup-subthreshold.
(see below) startup-sub
threshold
reselect-anytime
Mesh points using the reselect-anytime
reselection mode perform a single topology
readjustment scan within 9 minutes of
startup and 4 minutes after a link is formed.
If no better parent is found, the mesh point
returns to its original parent. This initial
scan evaluates more distant mesh points
before closer mesh points, and incurs a
dropout of 5-8 seconds for each mesh
point.
After the initial startup scan is completed,
connected mesh nodes evaluate mesh links
every 30 seconds. If a mesh node finds a
better uplink, the mesh node connects to
the new parent to create an improved path
to the mesh portal.
— —
reselect-never
Connected mesh nodes do not evaluate
other mesh links to create an improved
path to the mesh portal.
— —
startup-subthreshold
Mesh points using the startup-
subthreshold reselection mode perform a
single topology readjustment scan within 9
minutes of startup and 4 minutes after a
link is formed. If no better parent is found,
the mesh point returns to its original
parent. This initial startup scan evaluates
more distant mesh points before closer
mesh points, and incurs a dropout of 5-8
seconds for each mesh point. After that
time, each mesh node evaluates alternative
links if the existing uplink falls below the
configured threshold level (the link
becomes a sub-threshold link). Best
practices are to use the default startup-
subthreshold value.
