The Root tab displays the following:

The Multicast Path tab displays the following:

State

Indicates whether the path is currently Valid of Invalid.

Binding

Indicates whether the path is bound or unbound.

Timeout

The timeout interval in seconds. The interpretation this value will vary depending on the value of
the state. If the state is Init or In Progress, the timeout duration has no significance. If the state is
Enabled, the timeout duration indicates the amount of time left before the security validity check is
initiated. If the state is Failed, the timeout duration is the amount of time after which the system
will retry.

Sequence

The sequence number also known as the destination sequence number. It is updated whenever a
mesh point receives new information about the sequence number from RREQ, RREP, or RERR
messages that may be received related to that destination.

Mesh Point Name

Displays the name of each configured mesh point in the RF Domain.

Recommended

Displays the root that is recommended by the mesh routing layer.

Root MPID

The MP identifier is used to distinguish between other mesh points both on the same device and on
other devices. This is used by a user to setup the preferred root configuration.

Next Hop IFID

The IFID of the next hop. The IFID is the MAC Address on the destination device.

Radio Interface

This indicates the interface that is used by the device to communicate with this neighbor. The
values are 2.4 and 5.8, indicating the frequency of the radio that is used to communicate with the
neighbor.

Bound

Indicates whether the root is bound or unbound.

Metric

Displays the computed path metric between the neighbor and their root mesh point.

Interface Bias

This field lists any bias applied because of the preferred root Interface Index.

Neighbor Bias

This field lists any bias applied because of the preferred root next-hop Neighbor IFID.

Root Bias

This field lists any bias applied because of the preferred root MPID.

Mesh Point Name

Displays the name of each configured mesh point in the RF Domain.

Subscriber Name

Lists the subscriber name is used to distinguish between other mesh point neighbors both on the
same device and on other devices.

Subscriber MPID

Lists the subscriber ID to distinguish between other mesh point neighbors both on the same device
and on other devices.

Group Address

Displays the MAC address used for the Group in the mesh point.

Path Timeout

The timeout interval in seconds. The interpretation this value will vary depending on the value of
the state. If the state is Init or In Progress, the timeout duration has no significance. If the state is
Enabled, the timeout duration indicates the amount of time left before the security validity check is
initiated. If the state is Failed, the timeout duration is the amount of time after which the system
will retry.
