show ap mesh topology

show ap mesh topology [long] [page ] [start ]

Description

This command shows the mesh topology tree.

Parameter

Description

long

Include the names of a mesh portal’s children in the output of this command.

page

Limit the output of this command to a specific number of entries by entering the number of entries you want to display.

start

Start displaying the mesh topology tree at a chosen index number by entering the index number of the AP at which command output should start.

Examples

An(N)in theMesh Rolecolumn indicates the node is 11N capable. An(N)beside the parent name in theParentcolumn indicates that the mesh node’s the parent is also 11N capable.

The output of this command includes the following information:

Column

Description

Name

Name of the mesh node.

State

State of the mesh node.

IP Address

IP address of the mesh node.

Switch IP

IP address of thecontroller.

Mesh Role

An AP operating as a mesh node can have one of two roles: mesh portal or mesh point.

Radio

Mesh radio number of the AP.

BSSID

BSSID for the AP. This is usually the AP’s MAC address.

Parent

If the AP is operating as a mesh point, this parameter displays the name of its parent mesh portal.

Path Cost

A relative measure of the quality of the path from the AP to thecontroller. A lower number indicates a better quality path, where a higher number indicates a less favorable path (e.g, a path which may be longer or more congested than a path with a lower value.)

For a mesh point, the path cost is the sum of the (parent path cost) + (the parent node cost) + (the link cost).

Node Cost

A relative measure of the quality of the node, where a lower number of is more favorable than a higher number. This cost is related to the number of children on the specified node.

Link Cost

A relative measure of the quality of the link. For example, a more congested link will have a higher link cost than a similar, less-congested link.

Hop Count

Number of hops to the mesh portal.

RSSI

The RSSI value displayed in the output of this command represents signal strength as a signal to noise ratio. For example, a value of 30 would indicate that the power of the received signal is 30 dBm above the signal noise threshold.

Rate Tx/Rx

Mbps的速度,网point transmits and receives at on its uplink. Note that the rate information is only as current as indicated in theLast Update列。

Last Update

Time elapsed since the mesh node last updated its statistics.

Uplink Age

Time elapsed since the mesh node became active in the mesh topology.

#Children

Number of children associated with a parent mesh point.
