Here is what I think it means.

Meshed generally is a term that is used to describe a network in which
every node in a network can reach every other node in a single hop.
In other words every node is connected to every other node.

Typically this involves using some switched technology like ATM/Frame relay etc. For e.g each node that connects into an ATM cloud can
setup "virtual" connections to each other node.

Somebody else may be able to provide a better explanation.

Hope this helps.
