RE: SSID jumping with Win 8.1 (Surface Pro 3) on Aruba

Apparently once a device sees there is no direct Internet access it stops 
trying, at least for a period of time. We found the portal made a huge impact 
on our DHCP usage.

 That may be the issue. Our Guest SSID has a portal, but for a while we ran an 
 open SSID with no portal.
 With no portal, we quickly found DHCP scopes filling up due to mobile devices 
 constantly associating, checking for Internet access as they roamed around 
 campus.

Even with a portal, don't devices still get a DHCP lease?  We had to deal with 
this by making our subnet and DHCP scope large enough for any potential mobile 
devices automatically associating, even if they didn't have credentials for the 
portal.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] CWNA training

2015-07-24 Thread Alan Klein
If also had great success with reading the CWNA book, I found it very 
informative and an interesting read. A solid foundation for all the other books.

If you do prefer instructor lead training, I have taken two courses from Robert 
Bartz, http://eightotwo.com/index.html (CWAP  CWDP) and had a very positive 
experience.

 The Davids do not teach for the test. They absolutely stress that you need 
 a 
 strong functional knowledge of 802.11 concepts rather than know these five 
 items to pass the test.
 
 Relatively speaking, it's cheap, and I highly recommend it. I didn't 
 personally utilize a training course because of how well done the book was.

 Looking for reviews on the CWNA training course?  Any recommendations on who 
 to go through?
 
 Thanks in advance,

I took CWAP from Robert, not CWNA and can attest to him being a great 
instructor.  Know lots of guys who took CWNA from him and they had nothing but 
good things to say.

Thanks
