5. If needed, create another WLAN mapped to the 802.11b/g/n radio if 802.11b/g/n support is
required for MUs on that 802.11 band.
9.3.1.4 Verifying Mesh Network Functionality for Scenario #1
You now have a three AP mesh network ready to demonstrate. Associate a single MU on each AP
WLAN configured for 802.11b/g/n radio support. Once completed, pass traffic among the three APs
comprising the mesh network.
9.3.2 Scenario 2 - Two Hop Mesh Network with a Base Bridge
Repeater and a Client Bridge
By default, the mesh algorithm runs an automatic link selection algorithm to determine the best
possible active and redundant links. If member APs are not far apart (in physical distance), the
algorithm intelligently chooses a single hop link to forward data. To force APs to use multiple hops
for demonstrations, use manual links.
In scenario 2, the following three AP configurations comprise the mesh network:
