what exactly do you mean with 'setup the mesh in bridge mode'?
I've set this up. Point to point is working.
All mesh APs are configured with
eth0 port config: default;
eth1 port config: wired AP enabled, bridge, trusted, access vlan 100 (the vlan on the controller from which the APs get their DHCP addresses)
I'm supplying poe to eth0 for both the 'remote'-point and the wired portal after it.
I've connected eth1 of both 'remote'-point and the wired portal after it to eachother. Straight connection, no switch inbetween.
The 'remote'-point shows its eth1 is up and I can see some RX trafic on it.

But the portal after it stays down.
