Hello all-
I have an open loft space that gets used for all-hands meetings about once a week. I've been trying to dial in my inherited Aruba installation and have been making some forward progress, but came across a stumbling block last week.
I had set my max clients threshold on my SSID to 20 clients (per radio) for a max of 40 per AP. All well and good until the AP reached a maximum and then refused connections. I was under the impression that the AP would max out and then the clients would fall over to the next nearest AP. I have TOO many AP's in this space, so it's not a matter of the individual radio's all becoming maxed out. There were several AP's within the area that the clients were trying to access.
Is there another setting I am missing regarding having the clients move to the next AP? I had to reset everything so that the threshold is back up to 64. That will work until 64 laptops try to stream something and then the connection speed will drop like a brick.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks-
Chris
