Re: [AFMUG] CNMaestro Relay Question
I added a network, 'Customers'. Everything we have is nested under 'default' (our tower sites). This is where I nest all 'customer' related equipment. Just as an example. I prefer to handle it this way. [image: image.png] Joe On Wed, Apr 22, 2020 at 1:31 PM Steve Jones wrote: > yep, once you create the site it will nest them. but sometimes it will rob > the sm.

Re: [AFMUG] CNMaestro Relay Question
yep, once you create the site it will nest them. but sometimes it will rob the sm. I think it only allows so many layers of nesting. sometimes the r190/195 will nest, sometimes they wont. eventually it may come down to RTFM, but thats like asking for directions from a woman, complete man card revocation. Cambium is really good about helping through issues and answering these kind of questions though. Once you invite them to view your account they show you all the ways youre using cnmaestro wrong. we would probably know all this, but the whole RTFM thing. Linke on the routers, theres a fairly easy process for having custom ESSID/passkeys without having to create a WLAN for each customer router...

[AFMUG] CNMaestro Relay Question
What is the 'best practice' to setup CN Maestro for a customers relay? 5ghz EPMP SM installed on a Barn, EPMP2.4 radio in AP mode facing House, EPMP2.4radio in SM Mode facing Barn. Usually I just run the 5ghz SM off the AUX port of the 2.4 radio. Then I only have to have a single Power supply and Cable run to wherever the power is. I thought that CNMaestro was supposed to be smart enough to figure out that equipment (especially if it was all Cambium equipment) was nested all automagically, but I guess not. Are you supposed to create a new 'tower' for the barn, and then put the 2.4 equipment under that? I'm starting to load more things into CNMaestro, and we have a handful of these scenarios. If they're all supposed to be towers, that seems like it will get out of hand pretty quick. And it's not truly a tower, it's just a radio on the guys barn that will only ever feed his house. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
