Abstract
The disclosure relates to techniques and technologies for efficiently transporting management information between mesh nodes across multiple hops or “mesh links” in a multi-hop mesh network. These techniques and technologies are general purpose and provide an extensible mechanism for transporting management traffic across a mesh network. These techniques and technologies can be applied in a number of applications relating, for example, to security, routing, radio measurements, mesh node management, etc.
