发明名称 MULTIPLE WIRELESS SPANNING TREE PROTOCOL FOR USE IN A WIRELESS MESH NETWORK
摘要 An apparatus for, a method of, and a computer carrier medium carrying code to cause a processor to execute a method. The method includes running a plurality of instances of a wireless spanning tree protocol in a wireless mesh node, each instance substantially conforming to the IEEE 802.1 standard. Running an instance of wireless spanning tree protocol including the wireless mesh point wirelessly transmitting BPDU information to other wireless mesh points of the network or wirelessly receiving BPDU information from other wireless mesh points, the BPDU information encapsulated in one or more control/management frames, e.g., beacon or probe response frames of a wireless network standard, the BPDU information relating to a spanning tree topology for the instance.
