force (meshpoint-config)
Forces formation of sub-optimal paths through the meshpoint‘s root node.
As per legacy behavior, non-root devices under the same root, communicated by forming direct
paths through the network. This option allows non-root devices, within the meshpoint, to
communicate by forming paths through the root node.
Supported on the following devices:
- Access Points:
AP3000/X, AP5010, AP310i/e, AP410i/e, AP505i, AP510i, AP510e, AP560i, AP7602, AP7612, AP7622, AP7632,
AP7662, AP8163, AP8533.
- Service Platforms:
NX5500, NX7500, NX9500, NX9600
- Virtual Platforms: CX9000, VX9000
Syntax
force [peer-paths-through-root|peer-paths-with-root]
Parameters
force [peer-paths-through-root|peer-paths-with-root]
force |
Forces formation of sub-optimal paths through the
meshpoint root node. |
peer-paths-through-root |
Forces non-root devices to communicate by forming
sub-optimal paths through the root node. This option is disabled by default. |
peer-paths-with-root |
Forces non-root devices to communicate by forming
sub-optimal paths with the root node. Does not allow formation of ad-hoc
peer-to-peer paths. This option is disabled by default. |
