WAP 60GX3 Mesh Network support?

Wed Jul 24, 2019 12:37 am

Hi,
I've got 6 of the WAP 60GX3 radios (License level 4). i was wondering if I can set them up as a mesh network? If yes, could anyone please let me know how to configure it. I couldn't find the WDS mode to configure it as a mesh. Any help will be of great help.

thanks
rks

so far only ap-sta and bridge-sta links are supported.
once the first terragraph phy compatible units come out - you will have support for arbitrary ap-ap links and therefore a true mess will be possible.

until then you need to manually configure your devices as ap or station, and sometimes place
more of them ot a site with wired interconnection to have a mesh like behaviour.

the. you can decide to run rstp/mstp and have it as a l2 network or do routing over the p2p wireless links.

i did a presentation about such an implementation at the budapest MUM this year. i will add soon english subtitles to it as it is right now in hungarian.

I would be very interested in that presentation, I have an 80 home development this would be ideal for.
