- The **Auto** button sets the display to automatically refresh the node information every 10 seconds. To end auto-refresh mode, click **Stop** or **Quit**. *Stop* returns to the static *Mesh Status* display. *Quit* takes you back to the *Node Status* display, but clicking *Mesh Status* again from there will return you to auto-refresh mode on the *Mesh Status* display.
- The **Super Mesh** button allows you to navigate to the *Mesh Status* display of the closest Supernode available to your device. Supernodes are a way to link multiple mesh island networks in a safe and efficient way. If your node is part of a Supernode network, then you have the ability to view other nodes which are part of the Supernode network even if your local mesh is not otherwise linked to those networks. For further information see the *Supernode Architecture* section of the **Network Topologies** section in the **Network Design Guide**.
- The **Quit** button returns you to the *Node Status* display.
- The **Search** field allows you to filter the *Mesh Status* display by any keywords of your choice. The display will be limited to showing only nodes which match the keywords you enter. As you type each character from your keyboard into the search fields, the display will change to show only the entries that match your character or string. The filter is case insensitive, so it will find both upper and lower case entries for the characters you enter. If you press the **Refresh** button on the *Mesh Status* display, the search field will be cleared.

Neighbor Status
If you have *Link Quality Manager* (LQM) enabled, you will also see a button which takes you to the **Neighbor Status** display. LQM is enabled/disabled from the **Advanced Configuration** page, and the settings for LQM are described in the **Configuration Deep Dive** section. The basic settings for *Link Quality Manager* are described below. The theory behind its operation is discussed in the AREDN |trade| *Link Quality Manager* section of the **How-To Guide**.
Super Mesh
If you are running firmware ≥ Nightly Build 20230921, you may see a *Super Mesh* button. This allows you to navigate to the *Mesh Status* display of the closest Supernode available to your device. Supernodes are a way to link multiple mesh island networks in a safe and efficient way. If your node is part of a Supernode network, then you have the ability to view other nodes which are part of the Supernode network even if your local mesh is not otherwise linked to those networks.

WiFi Scan
Displays a list of other 802.11 signals within range of your node. The 802.11 signals may include Access Points, neighbor nodes, and other mesh networks (foreign ad-hoc networks). WiFi Scan is described in more detail below.
