    Configuring Mesh Networking 9.1 Mesh Networking Overview An AP-7131 can be configured in two modes to support the new mesh networking functionality. The access point can be set to a client bridge mode and/or a base bridge mode (which accepts connections from client bridges).
  • Page 608 A mesh network must use one of the two access point LANs. If intending to use the access point for mesh networking support, Motorola recommends configuring at least one WLAN (of the 16 WLANs available) specifically for mesh networking support.

    MU traffic with its associated devices. CAUTION Only Motorola AP-7131, AP-5131 or AP-5181 model access points can be used as base bridges, client bridges or repeaters within an access point supported mesh network. If utilizing a mesh network, Motorola recommends considering a dual-radio model to optimize channel utilization and throughput.
  • Page 610: Client Bridge Configuration Process Example

    9.1.2 Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) The access point performs mesh networking using STP as defined in the 802.1d standard. NOTE The Motorola AP-4131 access point uses a non-standard form of 802.1d STP, and is therefore not compatible as a base bridge or client bridge within an access point managed network.
  • Page 611: Defining The Mesh Topology

    Configuring Mesh Networking Support on page 9-6. 9.1.4 Mesh Networking and the AP-7131’s Two Subnets The access point now has a second subnet on the LAN side of the system. This means wireless clients communicating through the same radio can reside on different subnets. The addition of this feature adds another layer of complexity to the access point’s mesh networking functionality.
  • Page 612: Normal Operation

    AP-7131 Access Point Product Reference Guide 9.1.5 Normal Operation Once the mesh network is defined, all normal access point operations are still allowed. MUs are still allowed to associate with the access point as usual. The user can create WLANs, security polices and VLANs as with any other access point.
  • Page 613 The user does not necessarily have to change these settings, as the default settings will work. However, Motorola encourages the user to define an access point as a base bridge and root (using the base bridge priority settings within the Bridge STP Configuration screen). Members of the mesh network can be configured as client bridges or additional base bridges with a higher priority value.
  • Page 614 (commonly referred to as the root). Motorola recommends assigning a Base Bridge AP with the lowest bridge priority so it becomes the root in the STP. If a root already exists, set the Bridge Priorities of new APs accordingly so the root of the STP doesn't get altered.
