    - First connect both IAPs in the same Layer 2 segment (wired), disable Extend SSID.

    - Once they form a cluster you can unplug the IAP that will acting as the Mesh Point 

    - Then just provide power to the Mesh point not a network connection and if is able to see the Mesh portal (backhaul iAP) it should be able to form the mesh link automatically no additional configuration.

    What have you tried ?

    Were able to see both IAPs form a cluster first ?

    Make sure you use E0 on each IAP not E1 .

    Ensure you first make them form a cluster by putting into a same VLAN.

     

    Then, follow the below procedure for configuration:
