Thanks for your reply. I assigned different mac addresses to mesh and station interface and it works. However, while pinging from both mesh interface and station interface, I found many packet drop in the mesh interface. Is it the default behavior if I try to use two different active interface with a single radio? Also the station gets disassociated after sometime.
