beacons on an existing WLAN or if a client bridge radio uses an uplink connection. The Mesh
Timeout value is not available on a single-radio access point, since the radio would have to
stop beaconing and go into scan mode to determine if a base bridge uplink is lost. The

When disabled, both radios are up at boot time and beaconing. If
one radio (radio 1) does not have a mesh connection, the other
radio (radio 2) is not affected. Radio 2 continues to beacon and
associate MUs, but MU's can only communicate amongst
themselves using the access point. Disabled is the default value.
When Uplink Detect is selected, the access point only boots up the
radio configured as a client bridge. The access point boots up the
second radio as soon as the first mesh connection is established.
However, if the client bridge radio loses its uplink connection, the
second radio shuts down immediately.
If the mesh connection is down on one radio (radio 1), the other
radio (radio 2) is brought down and stops beaconing after the
timeout period (45 seconds). This allows the client bridge (radio 1)
to roam without dropping the MU's associated to radio 2. The
disadvantage is that radio 2 may beacon for the 45 second timeout
period and have to drop associated MU's because radio 1 could not
establish its uplink.

as the mesh is down, the access point acts in accordance to the Mesh
Time Out setting regardless of the state of the Ethernet. However, if the
Ethernet goes down and the mesh link is still up, the EPTO takes effect.
