Figure 86 Normal AC + fit MP scenario
As shown in
, two mesh networks are controlled by the same AC. At least one MPP in a mesh
has wired connectivity with the AC. When an MP starts up, it scans the network and forms quasi-secure
connections with all available MPs in its vicinity (quasi-secure connections are temporary links with
default or minimum configuration which allows the MP to connect to the AC for downloading its
configurations. Only configuration-related messages are allowed to pass through the links). After
downloading its configurations from the AC, the MP establishes secure connections with neighbors.
In a geographical area that has more than one mesh network deployed, when an MP starts up, it does
not know through which mesh it should connect to the AC, so it forms quasi-secure links with MPs in all
available mesh networks.
