Is everywhere (though different paradigm is used in our stadium) and is very well received. We do rate limit, though generously, and restrict our own users to a miserably slow connection if they stray off of the secure network.

There are two types of sponsorship – short term (5 days) and long term (30 days). In addition, sponsored guests must register their network devices via MAC address registration to gain access to the network. Our guest wireless implementation has caused some issues with public areas like our student center and event spaces which host groups of people who require network access, and the identity of the guests isn’t always known in advance. I wanted to know about guest network access policy at other schools, and I’d appreciate your feedback on the following questions: 1) Do you allow guests on your wireless network? a. If you allow guests, what steps do they need to take to gain access to the network (eg. sponsorship, MAC registration, open network)? b. If you require sponsorship or device registration, can you explain the process or give me a pointer to your policy? 2) Is your wireless network completely open in any part of your campus (eg. Library, student center, event spaces, athletic fields, etc.)?
