Just tried it out on a R500... Missing snmp configuration. Will that be added later on, or is it just me having a hard time finding it...?

Correct that there's no SNMP, and not sure if it's on the Unleashed roadmap.

No SmartMesh and SmartRoam in initial release, but these features are expected in upcoming updates.

Yes, SNMP is on the roadmap for near term delivery (before the end of the year)

I know it support maximum upto 25 AP but how many number of ap do you recommend ??
and AP Unleashed can converse to controller-based like some vendor?
