• Scenario 2 - A two hop mesh network with a base bridge, repeater (combined base bridge and
client bridge mode) and a client bridge.
Scenario 1 - Two Base Bridges and One Client Bridge
In scenario 1, the following three access point configurations will be deployed within the mesh
network:
• AP#1 - An active base bridge
• AP#2 - A redundant base bridge
• AP#3 - A client bridge connecting to both AP#1 and AP#2 simultaneously.
AP#1 and AP#2 will be configured somewhat the same. However there are some important (yet
subtle) differences. Therefore, the configuration of each access point will be described separately.
Configuring AP#1:
1. Provide a known IP address for the LAN1 interface.
NOTE
Enable the LAN1 Interface of AP#1 as a DHCP Server if you intend to associate MUs and require
them to obtain an IP address via DHCP.
2. Assign a Mesh STP Priority of 40000 to LAN1 Interface.
