Resolution
That is expected behavior, when you make a configuration change on a mesh supported AP, it brings
the radio driver down and then back up again. Consequently, the AP needs to re-establish its mesh
connection after saving the configuration.
Mesh Deployment Issue 14 - Will an existing client bridge see a new base bridge
or repeater?
If I add a new base bridge or repeater to an existing mesh topology, will my current client bridges see
it and connect to it?
Resolution
Yes, all client bridges perform periodic background scanning - both passively (by sniffing the air for
beacons) and actively (by sending Probe Requests). Therefore, a client bridge automatically detects
the presence of a new base bridge or repeater added to the mesh network topology and forms a seam
less connection without affecting current operation.
Mesh Deployment Issue 15 - Can a mesh supported AP react to changing RF
conditions?
If RF conditions change, will a mesh supported AP automatically detect and re-route traffic on its
backup link or look for new links if all current links are exhausted?
Resolution
Yes, all mesh nodes have built in dynamic link switching and auto-recovery mechanisms that ensure
they adapt to changing RF conditions.
