Apple TV issue we are seeing

2014-03-17 Thread Sullivan, Don
I was wondering if anyone else has run into this before with Apple TVs. We are still running Cisco 4400s as our controllers and are on 7.0.235.3. The Apple TVs that are on the wireless network are getting this alarm: Client 'xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:x (xx.xx.xx.xx)' which was associated with interface

I believe it's recommended that you upgrade floor by floor, and building by building. If you don't have that capability, I would suggest upgrading the hardware, but not enable the VHT capabilities until all hardware has been upgraded. I'm not totally sure of .11ac's protection mechanisms, but

Frank, We have a few deployments on campus where we have an auditorium with 802.11n and only a/bg in the surrounding rooms and have not had any issues so far. Currently we only have entire building deployments of 11ac, although with the experience we have had so far with Meru we would deploy

Sure! http://www.terra-wave.com/shop/245-ghz-6-dbi-mimo-quad-patch-antenna-with-rptnc-plug-connector-p-2075.html The Georgia Tech story came out after we installed, but looks like these may do exactly what some people need in auditoriums (we used 3702 though). We didn't get a straight cone

Sounds like Bounjour Sleep Proxy where the Apple TV will temporarily take over the IP(s) of other sleeping devices on the LAN so it can proxy those other IPs' services and then wake up the original device to service the request. See here for a discussion about that:
