Table 35 Profiles > Mesh > Radio Profile Settings (Continued) Field Default Description 802.11g Transmit Rates All selected Mesh Private VLAN 0 (0-4094) Indicate the transmit rates for the 802.11g radio. The AP attempts to use the highest transmission rate to establish a mesh link. If a rate is unavailable, the AP goes through the list and uses the next highest rate. Enter a VLAN ID for control traffic between an remote mesh portal and mesh nodes. This VLAN ID must not be used for user traffic. Range: 0-4094. Default: 0 (disabled). BC/MC Rate Yes Optimization Enable or disable scanning of all active stations currently associated to a mesh point to select the lowest transmission rate based on the slowest connected mesh child. When enabled, this setting dynamically adjusts the multicast rate to that of the slowest connected mesh child. Multicast frames are not sent if there are no mesh children. NOTE: AirWave recommends using the default value. 3. Select Add or Save. The added or edited Radio profile appears on the Profiles > Mesh > Radio page. Profiles > Mesh > Radio > Mesh HT SSID The mesh high-throughput SSID profile enables or disables high-throughput (802.11n) features for the SSID specified in the profile. This parameter is enabled by default. The mesh high-throughput profile can have a maximum of 32 characters. Perform these steps to configure a Mesh HT SSID profile. 1. Select Profiles > Mesh > Radio > Mesh HT SSID in the Dell PowerConnect W Navigation pane. The details page summarizes the current profiles of this type. 2. Select the Add button to create a new Mesh HT SSID profile, or click the pencil icon next to an existing profile to edit. The Details page appears.

Profiles > Mesh > Radio > Mesh HT SSID
The mesh high-throughput SSID profile enables or disables high-throughput (802.11n) features for the SSID
specified in the profile. This parameter is enabled by default. The mesh high-throughput profile can have a
maximum of 32 characters.
Perform these steps to configure a
Mesh HT SSID
profile.
1.
Select
Profiles > Mesh > Radio > Mesh HT SSID
in the
Dell PowerConnect W Navigation
pane. The
details page summarizes the current profiles of this type.
2.
Select the
Add
button to create a new

profile, or click the
pencil
icon next to an existing profile
to edit. The
Details
page appears. Complete the settings as described in
Table 17
:
802.11g Transmit
Rates
All selected
Indicate the transmit rates for the 802.11g radio. The AP attempts to use the highest
transmission rate to establish a mesh link. If a rate is unavailable, the AP goes
through the list and uses the next highest rate.
Mesh Private VLAN
(0-4094)
0
Enter a VLAN ID for control traffic between an remote mesh portal and mesh nodes.
This VLAN ID must not be used for user traffic.
Range: 0-4094. Default: 0 (disabled).
BC/MC Rate
Optimization
Yes
Enable or disable scanning of all active stations currently associated to a mesh point
to select the lowest transmission rate based on the slowest connected mesh child.
When enabled, this setting dynamically adjusts the multicast rate to that of the
slowest connected mesh child. Multicast frames are not sent if there are no mesh
children.
NOTE:
AirWave recommends using the default value.
