Re: [AFMUG] epmp lockups
Bah! Too much coffee. I don't have any ePMP. I just saw 2.4GHz. Ours are all ubnt and do not lockup. Sorry for the confusion.

Yesterday we got rain again and that AP went down again so I went and ran a new line and replaced the AP. Now all is good.

Re: [AFMUG] epmp lockups
In the first case the wireless interface went down as well. I was pulling up the radio to check on the status of a technician that was installing a customer on the unit and it crashed before it pulled completely up. The tech called me a minute later to see why the AP had disappeared. Not sure if that was the case in subsequent lockups. Incidentally, I accidentally typed the address of the unit last night but the page didn't load and didn't think anything about it and then looked at alerts and the unit was reported as down a few minutes later.

Re: [AFMUG] epmp lockups
Yep. After I bounced the interfaces and got logged into them, MonitorWireless shows the SM sessions never went down. One of them is on a building and the cable is maybe 20 feet on a Laird POE-24iR. The other one is about a 140' run on a tower powered by a PacketFlux injector on a Phoenix Contact power supply. On 5/16/2015 2:48 PM, Josh Reynolds wrote: Quick question...

Re: [AFMUG] epmp lockups
I'll admit we don't have a lot of ePMP up, but I haven't had many issues with it. Besides the screwy data display issues like the bridge tables which now appears to be mostly fixed with R2.4.2. The two radios with what appeared to be locked up ethernet interfaces could've just been flukes. Who knows. And they haven't done it since then.
