Our system is optimized for APs
on the same channel to share the same BSSID. This is not just for
handoffs, but also for load balancing in a channel and helping the high
user density feature perform as effectively as possible in a dense AP
deployment.
Always configure ESSIDs to have the same
BSSID on the same channel (unless you need to support Vocera location
tracking). For the specific Vocera location support scenario, where APs
on the same channel have different BSSIDs, always set the high user
density mode to Off.
The Fortinet Security Fabric brings together the concepts of convergence and consolidation to provide comprehensive cybersecurity protection for all users, devices, and applications and across all network edges.
