Configuring Mesh Networking

Verify the enabled LAN is named appropriately in respect to its intended function in
supporting the mesh network.
3. Select Network Configuration -> LAN -> LAN1 or LAN2 from the AP-5131 menu
tree.
4. Click the Mesh STP Configuration button on the bottom off the screen.
5. Define the properties for the following parameters within the mesh network:
Priority Set the Priority as low as possible for a to force other devices
within the mesh network to defer to this client bridge as the bridge
defining the mesh configuration (commonly referred to as the root).
Symbol recommends assigning a Base Bridge AP with the lowest
bridge priority so it becomes the root in the STP. If a root already
exists, set the Bridge Priorities of new APs accordingly so the root
of the STP doesn't get altered. Each access point starts with a
default bridge priority of 32768.

The Maximum Message age timer is used with the Message
Age timer. The Message Age timer is used to measure the age of
the received protocol information recorded for a port, and to ensure
the information is discarded when it exceeds the value set for the
Maximum Message age timer.
