Addressing

Static
Use this option to create simple back-to-back links between two APs. When creating static
links, both APs must be operating on the same wireless channel. Make sure that the channel
selection on the Wireless > Radio(s) page is not set to Automatic.
 Remote MAC address: MAC address of the radio on the remote AP on which the link
will be established.
 Local MAC address: MAC address of the radio on this AP on which the link will be
established.
Dynamic
Use this option to create dynamic local mesh installations.
Mode
Three different roles can be assigned to a node: master, alternate master, or slave. The role
assigned to a node, governs how the node will establish upstream or downstream links with
its peers. The available configuration settings change depending on the role that is selected.
 Master: The master is the root node that provides the upstream connection to the
ground network that the other nodes want to reach. The master will only create
downstream links to alternate master or slave nodes.
