Yeah, but once they're defined the first time, they're available in the device config, which isn't to bad. I'm not sure how else to have user-specific settings managed centrally. It could be easier to get to the overrides page from the Device dashboard page, though.

We're actually doing all the baseline config (that which applies to ALL routers: ipv6, timezone, DST, etc.) in tftp file via option 66. A defaulted router will get DHCP, download tftp file with all that stuff, including a generic, limited access pppoe user/pass. At that point, they reboot and can reach the Internet, where we finish it up in cnMaestro. So even if customer defaults, it auto-reprovisions after we force it to sync in cnMaestro.

That's how we manage PPPoE and WLAN settings currently, but the overrides are clunky at best (i mean.. who the hell uses length of a label as a sorting parameter?).. We have customers who ask for additional settings, like different local network address, guest wifi network, etc.. It just seems like these things should be easier to configure for each individual device without making a huge list of overrides.

I've been testing it - I'm using a single AP group and custom overrides. We are also PPPoE so created custom variables so that we could do user-specific pppoe user/pass in the custom overrides section. It does work.

Hey folks..
Does anyone use Maestro cloud thing to manage routers for end users?

We're pretty happy with how it handles corporate networks and radios, but  home router configuration seems a bit underdeveloped. The only way I see is to either create an AP group and wifi network for each customer, or put them all under one AP group, and use the less-than-friendly custom overrides to maintain individual SSIDs, WPA keys, etc..

How are you guys doing it?

thank you,
Vlad
