MR36 connected devices limitation.
Hello Community,,,,Let me clarify and ask about MR 36 user/connected devices limitation. I have using MR36 12APs. In this case I would like set connected devices to each APs. For eg: Only 12 users can connected to AP1 , only 20 users can connected to AP2 like that.

The only way you could achieve something like that is using different SSID's, and SSID availability to specify which AP is advertising which SSID.
However I think a fair question is what problem are you trying to tackle by implementing this?

That's not the way wireless infrastructure is typically designed and deployed.
Are you concerned too many devices may connect to a single AP?
If that's the case, you may need to increase the density of WAP's in that area. Or use a feature such as client balancing.
If you're concerned about bandwidth usage on an individiual AP, you can set per-client traffic shaping (under Wireless -> Traffic shaping).

You can use client balancing for this matter:

Don't try and do that. It will create a lot of work for you.
If the APs are near each other you can try reducing the power levels to encourage roaming.
Under Wireless/Radio settings/Profiles, start by using some values like these:
