9.2.3 Configuring the Access Point Radio for Mesh Support
An access point radio intended for use within a mesh network requires configuration attributes
unique from a radio intended for non-mesh support.This section describes how to configure an access
point radio for mesh network support.
To configure the access point radio for mesh networking support:

the mesh network feature by allowing the access point to transmit to
other access points (in base or client bridge mode) using one independent
radio and transmit with its associated devices using the second
independent radio. A single-radio access point has its channel utilization
and throughput degraded in a mesh network, as the AP's single radio must
process both mesh network traffic with other access points and MU traffic
with its associated devices.
