Actually a iwlist scan should detect mesh beacons a report the
corresponding mesh network. Mesh probe responses were not implemented,
but I have not been tracking the development lately, maybe someone
bother to add support for it. As Javier states, mesh station dump
shows reachable MPs in your mesh network, which is the expected
behavior.
