Configures the path selection method used on a meshpoint device. This is the method used to
select the route to the root node within a mesh network.
Supported in the following platforms:
• Access Points — Brocade Mobility 1220 Access Point, Brocade Mobility 71XX Access Point,
Brocade Mobility 1240 Access Point
• Access Points (as root APs only) — Brocade Mobility 650 Access Point
Syntax:
path-method [mobile-snr-leaf|snr-leaf|uniform]
Parameters
path-method [mobile-snr-leaf|snr-leaf|uniform]

path-method Sets the method used to select the path to the root node in a mesh network
mobile-snr-leaf Configures the path selection method as mobile-snr-leaf. When selected, the path to the root node is
selected based on the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) to a neighboring device. This option allows
meshpoint devices to select a neighbor with the strongest SNR. Meshpoint devices using the
mobile-snr-leaf method are non-forwarding nodes in the meshpoint traffic.
NOTE: Select this option for Vehicular Mounted Modem (VMM) access points or other mobile devices.
snr-leaf This option allows meshpoints to select a neighbor with the strongest SNR. It is similar to the
mobile-snr-leaf option, but is not applicable to mobile devices, such as VMMs.
uniform Indicates the path selection method is uniform. When selected, two paths will be considered
equivalent if the average goodput is the same for both paths. This is the default setting.
NOTE: Select this option for infrastructure devices.
