Not available in the standalone management - Insight features only:

What is it for??
Suggest to read the chapter "Display unknown and known neighbor access points" again.
Something like a Scanner Radio 8-)

Does it has something to do with configuring a mesh system without using Insight?
No.

No. The name says it all:: How do I set up an Insight Instant Mesh network?
Just to avoid any confusion: Wireless Access Points WAX6xx and WAC6xx connected to a wired network don't have to be added to create an Insight Mesh.
Hi, Thanks for replaying
My ignorance still does not allow me to see how to get any benefit from the Neightbor AP feature, but can you explain this a bit further "Just to avoid any confusion: Wireless Access Points WAX6xx and WAC6xx connected to a wired network don't have to be added to create an Insight Mesh."
I have wax620 and wax610y both are ethernet connected and POE from a switch, what are you referring to when you said that in a wired configuration wax6xx don't have to be added to create an Insight Mesh ?? Do not have to be added to what?? you mean added as known APs or is that something different ?
Thanks again
