RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco Prime 1.3 - Adding Vendor OUI's
I have used that xml from that page, still have some unknowns though From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU] On Behalf Of Jeffrey Sessler Sent: Tuesday, September 03, 2013 2:42 PM To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco Prime 1.3 - Adding Vendor OUI's I noticed that in Prime 1.3, there is an option to add missing vendor OUIs, either via the Admin->System Setting->User Defined OUI, or by uploading a new vendorMacs.xml. I added several new OUIs using the User Defined OUI page, but in client listings and reports, they are still showing as "Unknown" - Does this require a restart of Prime just as WCS needed? Has anyone come up with a good method of automating the update of the vendorMacs.xml file? I noticed that Cisco's Prime 1.3 docs state "Updates will be posted from time to time on Cisco.com" but I've yet to see one. I also found this site http://www.macvendorlookup.com/, and it does appear to provide a constantly updated vendorMacs.xml.

New 802.11ac book from Matthew Gast
FYI. Matthew Gast has just published a 152 page book on 802.11ac, called "802.11ac: A Survival Guide." Published by O'Reilly: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920027768.do I purchased the ebook version (DRM free!) and found it to be quite informative. Recommended. -Charles Charles E. Spurgeon University of Texas at Austin / ITS Networking c.spurg...@its.utexas.edu / 512.475.9265 Here's an interesting bit on 802.11ac adoption in smartphones: "Although 802.11ac is often dismissed as too power-hungry for mobile devices, singlestream 802.11 MIMO devices do not require significantly more power than their SISO predecessors. The main consumer of power in a MIMO device is the power-hungry digital signal processor that performs spatial mapping. By using only a single spatial stream, a portable device can reap significant benefits from 802.11ac's increased speed and wider channels without paying a significant power-consumption penalty. Although there will be an increase in power requirements to use wider channels, the trade-off is that transmissions go so much faster that the analog section is on for much less time. With a net battery life benefit, 802.11ac will be adopted widely in portable devices. In fact, 2013 saw the first introduction of an 802.11ac-capable smartphone." p 92, Chapter 5, "802.11ac Planning" ** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.
