Yeah, this would be tricky, as if you have any client not on for any reason when you swap Aps, they’re orphan.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s better than nothing, but even something like the 450’s 430 compatibility mode would solve this, or have it try CanopyMagic on reboot, then drop to 802.11, or something.

That might be a bit tricky to coordinate all the variables. It’s quite easy to change all the SMs via SNMP , so I would imagine getting all the ePMP SMs online with WiFI, then issuing an SNMP command to them to change to normal mode and reboot, then change the APs then everything would come up. That’s how we are going to do it to upgrade the few UBNT towers that we have Paul From: Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] On Behalf Of Steve D via Af Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2014 12:34 PM To: af Subject: Re: [AFMUG] New ePMP Beta Software 2.3-RC10 available! For these situations where someone might want two configurations, it would be nice to be able to pre-load configurations and if the sm can't connect to an AP for a set amount of time, it loads the other config and tries that, and goes back and forth until it locks on.

You have to explicitly configure the SM to operate in Standard WiFi mode (from the Quick Start or Configuration->Radio page) to connect to an AP operating standard 802.11.

Is the basic idea that you’re using an SSID and wpa2 anyway, so when the ePMP tries to connect, it then identifies the AP as 802.11 or CanopyMagicSauce and connects accordingly?
