I think this would be down to the driver support; I'm unaware of anything that would prevent it in the mesh stack itself. But I also don't know of a driver that does specifically support multiple mesh BSSes. It would need to at least have the concept of multiple per-MBSS station sets and be able to send different beacons.

Does
open80211s
support multiple mesh IDs on a single wifi interface?Although I can create multiple mesh interfaces I can only establish connection when all the interfaces are using the mesh ID created for the first virtual interface.
For example, taking into account the network topology ap1 <-> ap2:
This works:
This doesn't work:
iw dev ap1 iw dev ap1-mp2.1 station dump
andiw dev ap2 iw dev ap2-mp2.1 station dump
show no connection between ap1 and ap2.
