Overview

The v2.1.1-2 release brings a number of feature enhancements and bugfixes to deliver a better Wi-Fi experience overall.

New features/Enhancements :

  1. Workload :

 Now more information on the workload can be seen under Access Points. New information includes the following and can be visible in the UI as shown in PIC-1

  • CPU USAGE
  • MEMORY USAGE
  • TX/SEC
  • RX/SEC

 

                                                                                                PIC-1

     2. Mesh Role :

When two APs are part of a mesh network, the role of each individual AP is now displayed in the UI under Access Points as shown in the picture below (PIC-2). The Access Points page now has an additional column which shows a field called MESH ROLE.

This field will have information about the AP Role. If the AP is the root AP then MESH role will be displayed as “root” if the AP is non-root then displayed as “mesh_Last four digit of Serial Number” with mesh band next to it (see PIC-2). If the AP is not configured as part of a mesh network, the mesh role will be displayed as “-“

                                                                                                PIC-2
