Whoa baby.  Can you clone the MAC of the old AP?

Seperate SSID per sector, but not the Preferred AP scan list in the SM. I got bit early on with that since it locks to the MAC of the AP, changed a sectors after a storm and had to go visit all the SM's to update the preferred AP List so they could link up again.

I think the preferred AP list is looked at in top down order. If the top one goes away (reboot or whatever) I assume you move to a lower one, but I don't see a rescan after x minutes option.

ePMP doesn't automatically jump between sectors at all. I tested this with 3.2 in the last few months. There are a bunch of customers getting -75 from the south facing sector when east is -60. It's been a good month on the wrong sector at this point. I expect a manual rescan or reboot would fix it.

I normally deploy 4 120 sectors on a tower. ABAB frequency. No issues observed Keep 5mhz guard between AB and you should be fine. Almost all customers can see more than 1 sector. Just waiting for automatic rescan in EPMP to automatically put them back on the strongest sector after an AP Reboot.

I'm thinking if you put a guard band between the adjacent sectors you'll be fine. If the F/B ratio is comparable to the Cambium sector antenna then you should be able to do F/B re-use. It takes a pretty high F/B ratio though.

We have 3 KP Performance 120 degree sectors on a tower with ePMP. It was the first tower we did with ePMP, and hindsight being 20/20 I would have done 40 90s to get the F/B Frequency reuse benefit.



If we add another 120 and make them all N S E W (4 total) I would have about 30 degrees of overlap per sector. What is that going to do with ePMP performance, if anything?
