Configuring Mesh Networking

5. The Trion IT department then selects Network Configuration -> LAN -> trion from the
AP-5131 menu tree.
6. The IT team selects the Mesh STP Configuration button on the bottom of the screen.
7. The Trion IT department leaves the Priority setting to at 32768 for AP3 and AP4 for both to
defer to AP1 (which was assigned a priority of 1 for root designation) as the AP-5131
defining the mesh network configuration.
The remainder of the Mesh STP Configuration settings are left unchanged from their default
values. The team clicks OK from within the Mesh STP Configuration screen and Apply from
within the trion (LAN1) screen to save the settings.
The Trion IT team now intends to assign WLANs (to use with the trion LAN) that can be
dedicated to their mesh network within the shipping yard.
8. The team selects Network Configuration -> Wireless from the AP-5131 menu tree.
The Wireless Configuration screen displays with those existing WLANs displayed within
the table. Since this is Trion’s first deployment for AP3 and AP4, the IT department
determines the existing default WLAN should be left as is, and a new WLAN should be
configured closely resembling the mesh network WLAN defined for AP1 and AP2.
