3.2.2. Fluidmesh technologies
Prodigy
Prodigy is Fluidmesh's proprietary implementation of the Multi-Protocol-
Label-Switching (MPLS) standard.
IMPORTANT
A Fluidmesh device only features Prodigy selection if the
installed Prodigy engine includes the selection feature.
Fluidmesh devices that are designed to operate exclusively in
Bridge Mode (in other words, point-to-point configuration) do
not feature Prodigy.
Prodigy 2.0 offers greatly improved performance compared to Prodigy 1.0.
New features include:
Fluidity (through software plug-ins)
Traffic engineering
Advanced Quality of Service (QoS)
Note that Prodigy 2.0 is only compatible with device firmware versions 6.5
and higher.
IMPORTANT
Prodigy 1.0 and Prodigy 2.0 are not compatible with each
other. Do not implement the two protocol versions within the
same network.
If you are expanding an existing network using new Fluidmesh
hardware components, make sure that all components are
compatible with each other by:
1. Upgrading all network components within the same
network to firmware version 6.5 or higher, and:
2. Configuring all network components within the same
network to operate using either Prodigy 1.0 or Prodigy
2.0.
Use of Prodigy 1.0 is only recommended if the network
contains older Fluidmesh devices that are not compatible with
Prodigy 2.0.
Select the Prodigy version you need by using the General
Mode page of the Configurator interface.
FM Racer
