Abstract: A method and system to manage connectivity of a client device in a mesh network including one or more network devices. A first network device determines a first client link cost metric associated with a first connection between the first network device and the client device. The first network device determines a first mesh link cost metric associated with a second connection between the first network device and a destination device. A first total connection cost metric is determined based on the first client link cost metric and the first mesh link cost metric. The first network device identifies a set of total connection cost metrics associated with the one or more network devices and destination device of the network. The first network device executes a connection decision in response to a comparison of the set of total connection cost metrics.
