Can I run the E2E controller on a V2000 as a PoP? We have a 7-site cnWave / Wi-Fi deployment that needs the cheapest PoP we can find. I have been using a V1000 as the edge in a non-standard configuration. I would like to upgrade it to a V2000 if that can run the E2E controller for at least 7 devices.
Chris,
The release notes say that the onbard E2E supports PTP only, simlilar to the v1000. I’m sure the issue is the amount of memory and processor to handle the tunnel end points terminated in the POP.
I would prefer not to have to support a cheap computer as well as the cnWave/cnPilot gear at this location. It would be better if the E2E controller was onboard. That said, I can’t ask them to spend the money to switch a V1000 to a V5000, so maybe I have to do it.

I get that, customers can be the worst.
If you have too, look at a Mini, Micro or Tiny from HP, Dell or Lenovo; avoid using Intel Nucs
Talking to Cambium about another issue, they suggested I should use a V2000 as my E2E controller. I said I thought that was only good for PTP E2E controllers… and they suggested otherwise.
I just tested it with some gear here. I setup 4x nodes using the V2000 as the PoP and E2E controller, which worked.
In an open ticket I had just been told the V2000 couldn’t be used. I asked for clarification, and was told it will do it but it is not really recommended.
I’m interested to know the limitations. Perhaps a V2000 can be used for some amount of nodes more than 2x, but not the full 31x?
