NOTE

The dual-radio model access point affords users better optimization of 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.

1. Select Network Configuration -> Wireless -> Radio Configuration from the Mobility 7131 Access

Point menu tree.

2. Refer to the Radio Function parameter to ensure the radio has been designated for WLAN

Radio support.

Refer to RF Band of Operation parameter to ensure you are enabling the correct

802.11a/n or 802.11b/g/n radio. After the settings are applied within this Radio

Configuration screen, the Radio Status and MUs connected values update. If this is an

existing radio within a mesh network, these values update in real-time.

3. Set the maximum number of MUs that can connect to this radio in the Maximum MUs box. A

value in the range of 1-127 can be configured for this setting.

4. Select the Enable Auto Mesh Mode checkbox to allow the access point radio to form a mesh

network with other APs in a dynamic environment where the physical location of an access

point relative to each other keeps changing.

When the Enable Auto Mesh Mode checkbox is selected, the Mesh Wired Peer Detection

Mode and Mesh Auto Single Connection Mode checkboxes are enabled. When selected,

the Mesh Wired Peer Detection Mode checkbox enables an AP to avoid a mesh connection

to another AP that it has a wired connection to. When selected, the Mesh Auto Single

Connection Mode checkbox forces the access point to have only one peer mesh

connection based on the RSSI value as seen by the access point.
