| Priority Adjustment |
| Designated IS Priority Adjustment | Sets the relative priority for the router to become the Designated Intermediate System (DIS)
or designated router.
Set the Designated IS Priority Adjustment to a value
in the range -255 – 255, which is added to the base level DIS priority to influence the DIS
election. Higher values increase priority.
|
| Control Priority | Select to assign a priority value that determines the probability of the election of this device (in comparison to others) to a Level 2 router. Higher values increase the probability of this device being elected. This option is disabled by default. |
| Shortest Path First (SPF) |
| Latency of Routing
Recalculation | Select to set the latency of routing
recalculation (within the Shortest Path First (SPF)
field). Specify the latency using a value in the range 0 – 60 seconds This option is disabled by default. |
| Mint Link Settings |
| MLCP IP | Select MLCP
IP to activate MiNT Link
Creation Protocol using an IP address. MLCP is
used to create a UDP/IP link from the device to a
neighbor. The neighboring device does not need to a
controller or a service platform. It can be another
access point with a path to the controller or service
platform.
|
| MLCP IPv6 | Select MLCP
IPv6 to activate MLCP for automated MiNT
UDP/IP link creation. |
| MLCP VLAN | Select MLCP
VLAN to activate MiNT MLCP by VLAN. MLCP
is used to create one VLAN link from the device to a
neighbor. The neighboring device does not need to be a
controller or service platform, it can be another access
point with a path to the controller or service
platform.

| Tunnel MiNT Across Extended VLAN | Select Tunnel
MINT Across Extended VLAN to tunnel MiNT
protocol packets across an extended VLAN. |
| Tunnel Controller Load Balancing |
| Tunnel Controller Load Balancing (Level 1) | If available to your controller, select to enable load
balancing of MiNT extended VLAN traffic through a WLAN tunnel controller. |
| Inter Tunnel Bridging |
| Inter Tunnel Bridging (Level 2) | Select to enable forwarding of broadcast multicast (BCMC)
packets between devices communicating via Level 2
MiNT links. When enabled, MiNT tunnels across Level
2, adopted access points are bridged. One of the
advantages of inter-tunnel bridging is the enabling of
roaming between these access points. This option is
disabled by default.
Note: If you enable this option, use ACLs to filter unwanted BCMC
traffic.
