I don't think I've seen that setting anywhere. Maybe the newer firmware
has gotten rid of the MAC of the AP. I'm not seeing that now, just the
SSID. Or maybe I'm remembering it wrong, and I didn't have the SSID Set
exactly the same on the replacement AP and nothing was linking up to it.

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.

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?
