    Can Aruba AP support more than one point to point connection or it support only one link. I am talking about aruba AP not Aruba Mesh AP.

     

    Aruba Mesh AP we can use for P2P and Point to Multipoint.

    Sure thing, configure those with wired backhaul(can be many) as "Mesh portal" and those who will have wireless uplinks as "Mesh points" and you´re good to go.

    So you mean to say that the AP with wired uplink (Mesh Portal) serve multiple AP without wired uplink (Mesh Points).

     

    But can a Mesh Point act as a Mesh Portal as well to serve other mesh points.

    Yes to both, depending on if you're using instant or controller based there's a number of "max hops" allowed. On instant it's just two, on controller is more. Cant remember the number but should say in the user guide.

    Cheers,
