Displaying WLAN Mesh Services Information 279

When wireless bridging is enabled for a service profile, the MAPs with the applied service profile serve as bridge peers. When a Mesh AP associates with a Mesh Portal AP through this service profile, the Mesh Portal AP automatically configures the Mesh AP to operate in bridge mode.

The display service-profilecommand indicates whether bridging has been enabled for the service profile.
