1. A method implemented by a device, the method comprising:
receiving a measurement result from each of a plurality of access points, of a mesh wireless local area network, to generate a set of measurement results, wherein each measurement result of the set of measurement results correspond to one time period;
filtering the set of measurement results to generate a filtered set of measurement results;
performing one or more additional processing on the filtered set of measurement results to generate a processed set of measurement results, wherein the one or more additional processing includes eliminating one or more outliers from the filtered set of results that are more than a threshold more than a standard deviation from a mean of the filtered set of measurement results;
aggregating the processed set of measurement results to generate a single interference score for an operating channel of the plurality of access points;
selecting a channel other than the operating channel of the plurality of access points based on the single interference score; and
sending the selected channel to the plurality of access points.
