Question

Is it possible to find the neighbour in a wireless mesh network? If there is an AP say AP1 which is connected to a switch and also another AP say AP2 to form a mesh then is it possible to find the neighbour of AP1 (which is AP2) if both access points support LLDP?

Was it helpful?

Solution

It is possible however not supported by all vendors, the motorola and HP are the only access points I'm interested in. By looking at their docs I think the models that my company uses have LLDP support to discover neighbours even on a mesh link.
