Configuring Mesh Networking

9-25

23. The IT team assigns the name of “

trion mesh network

” to the ACL to eliminate any

confusion with the ACLs intended function

24. Since the range of client bridge MAC addresses for the shipping yard mesh network is

known to the IT Team, they select the

Deny

drop-down menu option, as the team wants to

deny access to all MAC addresses except their own known range of device MAC addresses.

25. The IT team then selects the

Add

button and enters the base bridge MAC address that will

be granted access to the AP-5131 managed WLAN. Once completed, the

Apply

button is

selected and the AP-5131 applet returns to the WLAN screen.

Now a QoS policy needs to be defined for the shipping and receiving mesh network WLAN.
The IT Team envisions little if any video or voice traffic within the shipping yard as the MUs
within primarily scan bar codes and upload data.

NOTE

If the Trion IT team puts the client bridge addresses into the ACL, they
should also put the AP-5131’s BSS ID into the ACL since there is no way to
know ahead of time which BSS the client bridge will use for association.
