Using Mesh Filters to Modify Map Display of Maps and Mesh Links

In the mesh hierarchical window, you can also define mesh filters to determine which mesh access points
display on the map based on hop values as well as what labels display for mesh links.
Mesh access points are filtered by the number of hops between them and their root access point.
To use mesh filtering, follow these steps.
Step 1 To modify what label and color displays for a mesh link, follow these steps:

An amber dot represents an acceptable SNR (20-25 dB).
A red dot represents a low SNR (below 20 dB).
A black dot indicates a root access point.
Bridging Link Information
a. In the Mesh Parent-Child Hierarchical View, select an option from the Link Label drop-down
menu. Options are None, Link SNR, and Packet Error Rate.
b. In the Mesh Parent-Child Hierarchical View, select an option from the Link Color drop-down
menu to define which parameter (Link SNR or Packet Error Rate) determines the color of the
mesh link on the map.
The color of the link provides a quick reference point of the SNR strength or Packet Error Rate.
