All of my EAPs (so far, 772s and 653s) default to showing "Mesh Traffic" on the Performance screen. This is confusing because:

  1. Isn't Client Traffic most often more interesting / useful as a default
  2. Mesh is disabled as all APs are hardwired, so:
    1. At the very least, this fact should change the default?
    2. More concerning, why is mesh traffic showing at all if mesh is disabled?

 

Here you can see the default view, showing active mesh traffic:

Here you can see the device saying:
Mesh
The Mesh function is disabled.
To enable this function, go to Site > Services > Mesh.

Here you can see Mesh disabled for the site:

mesh is definitely disabled
