WAC730: Cannot join more than two units in ensemble

Hello, Consider this scenario: I have three WAC730 access points.  We'll call them AP1,AP2,AP3.  They are all on the same subnet, 172.20.0.0/24.  AP1 is 172.20.0.10, AP2 is 172.20.0.11, and AP3 is ...

    Make a note of this:

     

    The subnet on the third access point was incorrect.  AP1 and AP2 were set to 255.255.255.0, the correct mask for my network.  AP3 was set to 255.255.0.0.

     

    I changed AP3's subnet mask to match the other two access points, and tried rejoining AP3 to the existing ensemble.  AP3 has joined the ensemble and I can see all three AP's in the ensemble IP's management address (172.20.0.6, in my case.)

     

    This matter is resolved.  Thanks.
