MeshAP Infrastructure

Teletronics Wireless Mesh Network consists of multiple wireless nodes (MeshAP Access

Points). In a typical Teletronics Wireless Mesh Network, one or more MeshAP units will

be assigned as a Mesh Manager and other node will be assigned as Mesh Station. Any

MeshAP access point can be assigned as a Mesh Manager Mode or Station Mode. (The

default setting for a MeshAP Access Point is set as Station Mode.)

Mesh Manager Mode

The MeshAP unit configures as the Mesh Manager and has a direct-wired link to the

Internet Gateway/Router/Access Server. It is used as the management unit and Internet

Gateway for the MeshAP unit (Station) on the mesh network. (Any MeshAP access point

can be configured as the Mesh Manger unit.)
