Greetings,
I am looking for some input from those who have experience with Aerohive
Wirelsss systems and who have implemented roaming across their campus.
Our wireless network has been configured in such a manner that clients must
obtain new IP space for each building as they move
For those interested, yesterday I worked with a student who had been
complaining of dropping and taking 20 minutes to get a Skype session
going. Turns out her Macbook Pro was on 10.8.5. I recommended she
upgrade to Mavericks (10.9.5) and let me know if it makes a difference.
I received this
Do you have layer 3 roaming enabled on your user profile(s)? Actually,
it's called User Profile/Optional Settings/GRE Tunnels/GRE Roaming for
station isolation, then apply a tunnel policy.

Thanks for responding. We have not implemented roaming and the existing
staff felt it was not the right way to go. I have had great success in the
past implementing other vendor roaming products and was looking for someone
who has the AreoHive system and would share their experience good or
Not sure if any others have tried out 8.0.100.0 code, but thought I'd toss out
our issues with it.
We are running a couple of 5508 HA pairs. The 8.0 code looked okay in testing
but once load hit the controllers (starting seeing issues around 800-1000
clients per WLC), we noticed a few issues.

They're trying to enforce their rule making, which means this will likely
end up in court. But yeah, I agree that they're firing a warning shot that
using quarantine features goes against their rules. Can't go to jail for
doing it, but they do have the authority to levy fines.

This isn't going to help things much at all. Having consulted into these
spaces in the past, and as you know as a you have going to a conference,
wifi is just bad in public spaces. Bad bad bad.
I am reminded of Steve Job's snafu in 2010, as so well documented in this
vid:
The first thoughts that pop to my mind are when is it ok to contain an AP that
isn’t a) on your network and b) doesn’t belong to one of your employees? As
it’s being used by a hotel guest the usual security concerns about rogues don’t
apply. Would this be any different than containing an AP
How would you like to have a house next to the Marriot? This type of RF
quarantine on a large scale could lead to worse problems than the devices
present themselves. I think I am with the FCC on this one. We try to educate
our users that they are causing problems for their fellow students and
People bring their own regardless of how good your Wi-Fi is. Many think I pay

Everything would be so much simpler if locations would provide Wi-Fi for free
or at a reasonable price.
When a technology is used by everyone (e.g. Electricity) like Wi-Fi, just
include it in the cost of doing business.
Stop charging users for Wi-Fi, especially when the room is already at

I just saw this on CNN and jumped on the list to post. Using your own AP is
against the AUP everyone signs at our institution. Now I wonder if that clause
is invalid.

While I suspect the FCC could potentially dictate that we are not allowed to
use ACTIVE measures to disassociate users from access points not within our
control, I would think they have no authority to dictate what devices we allow
to be connected to our network. So, students could run an
I think Josh is right. This is public airspace. FCC's decision seems to
enforce this. Everyone has the right to use it, as everyone has the right
to use the highway, and thus traffic jams we get.

I suspect the clause will still be valid, but we cannot use wireless
countermeasures to enforce them. Telling students to turn them off, disabling
wired ports, student discipline, etc are outside the FCC's jurisdiction it
seems to me.

Yeah, but this does no good for cellular mifi wifi access points.
But you guys are right. Ethernet-bound rogue access points. Shut off
ethernet. Problem sorta solved.

It's not that it's invalid, but we just can't (shouldn't) enforce it
using our radios. We can enforce it politically (grievances against
people who refuse to remove the APs).
