The Multicast Path tab displays the following:

The Neighbors tab displays the following:

Recommended

Displays the root that is recommended by the mesh routing layer.

Root MPID

The MP identifier is used to distinguish between other mesh points both on the same
device and on other devices. This is used by a user to setup the preferred root
configuration.

Next Hop IFID

The IFID of the next hop. The IFID is the MAC Address on the destination device.

Radio Interface

This indicates the interface that is used by the device to communicate with this neighbor.
The values are 2.4 and 5.0, indicating the frequency of the radio that is used to
communicate with the neighbor.

Bound

Indicates whether the root is bound or unbound.

Metric

Displays the computed path metric between the neighbor and their root mesh point.

Interface Bias

This field lists any bias applied because of Preferred Root Interface Index.

Neighbor Bias

This field lists any bias applied because of Preferred Root Next-Hop Neighbor IFID.

Root Bias

This field lists any bias applied because of Preferred Root MPID.

Mesh Point Name

Displays the name of each configured mesh point in the RF Domain.

Subscriber Name

The identifier is used to distinguish between other mesh points both on the same device
and on other devices. This is used by a user to setup the preferred root configuration.

Subscriber MPID

Lists the subscriber ID to distinguish between other mesh point neighbor devices in the RF
Domain.

Group Address

Displays the MAC address used for the group in the mesh point.

Timeout

The timeout interval in seconds. The interpretation of this value will vary depending on the
value of the state. If the state is Init or In Progress, the timeout duration has no
significance. If the state is Enabled, the timeout duration indicates the amount of time left
before the security validity check is initiated. If the state is Failed, the timeout duration is
the amount of time after which the system will retry.

Mesh Point Name

Displays the name of each configured mesh point in the RF Domain.

Destination Addr

Displays the MeshID (MAC Address) of each mesh point in the RF Domain.

Neighbor MP ID

The MAC Address that the device uses to define the mesh point in the device that the
neighbor is a part of. It is used to distinguish the device that is the neighbor.

Neighbor IFID

The MAC Address used by the interface on the neighbor device to communicate with this
device. This may define a particular radio or Ethernet port that communicates with this
device over the mesh.

Root MP ID

The MAC Address of the neighbor's root mesh point.

Is Root

A root mesh point is defined as a mesh point that is connected to the WAN and provides a
wired backhaul to the network. Yes if the mesh point that is the neighbor is a root mesh
point or No if the mesh point that is the neighbor is not a root mesh point.

Mobility

Displays whether the mesh point is a mobile or static node. Displays True when the device
is mobile and False when the device is not mobile.

Radio Interface

This indicates the interface that is used by the device to communicate with this neighbor.
The values are 2.4 and 5.0, indicating the frequency of the radio that is used to
communicate with the neighbor.
