maximum devices in an RF domain

Currently in RFS6000, there are 3 RF domains, by default with 11 devices, RF-5Ghz 24 and RF-Offices5Ghz 24, in the latter 2 there are more devices added the domains RF-5Ghz and RF-Offices5Ghz, but they do not appear when Check in the dashboard or CLI "show wireless radio on RF-5Ghz", only a list of 24 devices appear.
There are only 24 devices per RF Domain?

That is correct, if WLANs are tunneled, maximum AP adoption is 48 for the RFS6000.

WLAN bridging mode tunnel is quite an old technology and was required over 17 years ago. Since you have AP6521 (4 digit APs, which are site survivable), you should try to keep the traffic local at each rf-domain using WLAN bridging mode local.

The RFS6000 is connected to my switches in a trunk way, and created 3 vlan for 3 different SSIDs.
The APs are AP6521, and if they are supported by the controller, they are all in the same firmware wing 5.9.1.0
So if there are 48 APs per tunnel, could it be because I have divided 24 each into 2 domains?

The EOSL RFS6000 supports up to 256 access points when WLANs are locally bridged and 48 access points when the WLANs are tunneled. 

Please ensure that the model of APs are supported under the RFS6000 firmware version (review release notes) and that the APs are running the same version of firmware as the RFS6000 and/or that the RFS6000 is staged to upgrade/downgrade the supported APs.
