CAPsMAN multiple SSIDs

RouterOS Beginner Basics

Hit there!

I’m trying to add wAP number 4 to the existing CAPsMAN configuration, and I’m having problems.
OK, drill-down:

  • Router 1 is a CAP manager. It has 3 SSIDs configured.
  • Router 2 and 3 are configured as cap “clients”, and have all 3 ssids working OK.

Now I setting up Router 4. Everything went ok. Problem is that I don’t get those SSIDS from router1.
Certificates between router1 and router4 are OK. Logs on router4 say that (CAP joined router1).

On router4 in Wireless section i get that red text saying:
– managed by CAPsMAN
– chanell 2462/20-eC/gn(20dBm), SSID: , CAPsMAN forwarding

On Router1 I have prepared Configuration for router4, provisioned router4…
On router1 in section CAPsMAN - Interfaces I see interfaces and sub-interfaces for all routers1-3. But for router4 i see only one interface, no sub-interfaces (for all ssids). Should those be configured automatically or do I need to enter them manually?

Conclusion: I have a working CAPsMAN. I have 2 additional routers working. What is the procedure to add another 4th router - what steps should be configured on router4 and on ruter1?

Any help appreciated.

Aha, one thing I have figured out:
My router3, wAP, has two MACs - one for etherrnet, one for wireless.
On router1 (CAPsMAN) I see ethernet’s MAC address, not wireless. Is that Ok?
So on router1 > Provision I see MAC address of ethernet interface of router4. Is that OK?

Ok, kind a solved issue. I want to share my solution with others:

On router1 > CAPsMAN > Provision: I had to manually enter the MAC address of router4’s wireless interface.
Button “provision” did nothing.
