Usage guidelines
Mesh link initiation enables the MP to send Link Open requests to a peer without having received a Link Open request from that peer. If this feature is disabled, the MP must wait for a Link Open request from its peer before it can send one.
Examples
# Disable mesh link initiation.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] wlan mesh-policy abc
[Sysname-wlan-mesh-policy-abc] undo link-initiation enable

link-keepalive
Use link-keepalive to set the mesh link keepalive interval.
Use undo link-keepalive to restore the default.
Syntax
link-keepalive keepalive-interval
undo link-keepalive
Default
The mesh link keepalive interval is 2 seconds.
Views
Mesh profile view
Predefined user roles
network-admin
Parameters
keepalive-interval: Specifies a keepalive interval in the range of 1 to 1800 seconds.
Usage guidelines
MPs on a mesh link use keepalive packets to detect mesh link status. The MP with a higher MAC address sends keepalive packets at the keepalive interval to the peer end. The sending MP disconnects the mesh link if it has not received a reply before three consecutive keepalive intervals expire. The receiving MP disconnects the mesh link if it has not received keepalive packets before three consecutive keepalive intervals expire. For correct link status detection, the keepalive interval at the sending end must be equal to or less than three times the keepalive interval at the receiving end.
Examples
# Set the mesh link keepalive interval to 6 seconds in mesh profile 1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] wlan mesh-profile 1
[Sysname-wlan-mesh-profile-1] link-keepalive 6

Default
A maximum of two mesh links can be established on a radio.
