Great information.  We'll be testing that :)

Registration queuing is only relevant to ARP and/or DHCP mode. See

First, be aware that we have very large installations with massive 
registration periods that are using controllers relying on SSH and they 
never reported problems. That said, there's nothing like a test to make 
sure things will behave properly.

Otherwise you might want to:

a) Making pressure on the vendor so he develop an SNMP implementation of 
deauthentication.

b) If Meru supports RFC3576 (RADIUS Disconnect-Messages, 
Change-of-Authorization or Packet-of-Disconnect) then we could finish 
our implementation and deauthentication would use RADIUS messages 
instead of SSH.

Cheers!
