Today another APP failed on us (#7
in last three weeks). This one was an APP Indoor (two weeks old). We�re
totally out of spares by now so I robbed an APPO from a less used site and
configured it exactly like the unit that failed, same channel, same name, same
ESSID, etc. We called our customers and had them cycle power on their ABO�s
but they did not auto re-associate. So, three truck rolls and three hours
later we got them going again.
At the customer site, they each
have routers, so they cannot easily log in to the SB client and re-associate
themselves. So, we show up w/our laptops and do it for them. My question is,
is there any way to get ABO�s to auto re-associate w/a new A/P (only thing
different is the MAC address, right?). Can you imagine the grief if you had,
say 50 clients on an A/P and it fails, then you replace the A/P and have to
roll-out to 50 customers just to get everyone going?
What am I missing
here?
