–For a Mesh AP, one uplink and up to 5 downlink connections are supported. For more information on Mesh, see Mesh Networking (AP-4000M/4900M Only).

Mesh Software Kit

The Mesh Software Kit (purchased seperately) converts an AP-4000 unit into an AP-4000M unit that supports Mesh capabilities. To covert your AP using the Mesh Software Kit, follow the steps below:

1.Print the Mesh sub-tab page containing all the necessary conversion information: software version, serial number, Ethernet MAC address, and security ID.

Figure 4-18 Mesh Sub-tab (AP-4000)

2.Contact your VAR or sales representative. You will be asked for the information obtained in step 1 above. Follow the instructions provided by your VAR or sales representative to obtain the Mesh Software Kit for conversion.

3.Update the AP with the license file included in the Mesh Software Kit. See Update AP via TFTP or Update AP via HTTP.

4.Reboot the AP. When the AP reboots, Mesh capabilities will be supported, and the AP can be configured to operate in a Mesh network.

5.See the Mesh (AP-4000M/AP-4900M Only) section above to configure Mesh networking.
