Abstract
Various embodiments disclose a method for transmitting data between node devices in a mesh network. The method includes a first node device a channel mask that specifies a set of channels that are available for a channel plan within an operating region associated with the mesh network. The first node device supports a set of channel plans. Based on the channel mask, the first node device determines a set of available channels supported by the first node device. The first node device selects from the set of available channels, at least one channel as a first preferred channel for data transmissions between the first node and a second node included in the mesh network. The first node device configures, based on the first preferred channel, a communication link between the first node device and the second node device.
