In high density areas we are using multi-gig.

Thanks for the responses.

Is anyone running multi-gig out to their APs or just a 1Gbps link?

We have over 100   515s and 535s deployed.  I have disabled the HE (ax) radio 
for now due to  legacy client issues. (intel)   I’ve seen this with other ax ap 
vendors so not just aruba thing.  Yes updating drivers has fixed but it’s 
really hard to instruct end user to go download drivers when the device doesn’t 
see any ssid even open guest one.   We weren’t seeing many ax clients so 
disabling this phy isn’t really huge issue for us today.

We have been very pleased with the performance of the system from client 
perspective.  But going from 802.11n 2ss aps to 802.11ac 4ss with 5ghz in room 
design probably has more to do than model of the ap.  Now the 8.x gui in aruba 
is another story.   Learning the ways of the mm cli will get you much farther 
than the buggy gui that is in the 8.5 train.  I’m on the latest 8.5.3 code as 
well.


Thanks
Trent

We've done a test deployment of Aruba 515s.  There seem to be some driver 
compatibility issues.  We have 2 IT buildings.  I had an induvial able to 
connect and see SSIDs just fine in our building with 315s.  When she came to 
the building with 515s, she saw nothing.  I updated her drivers, and then 
everything worked.  So just be aware you might see more of that.  We were 
running 8.503 code (I think).

Having users update their device drivers is on our standard troubleshooting 
script for when people call in trouble reports.  It’s been solving problems for 
years.  :)

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Site Survey software

2019-08-21 Thread Moore, Clark
Another one for Ekahau. I’ve been using it for over 10 years. It does a great 
job. Make sure to get the Sidekick with it. I also use an IPad Pro when walking 
the survey. Much lighter than lugging around a laptop.

Second GT’s comments, but would also suggest looking at iBwave. Unfortunately, 
the AirMagnet survey product is somewhat stagnated but was awesome when kept 
current. And… TamoSoft is in the game as well. That’s pretty much the market at 
this point.

The software most predominant in the industry is from Ekahau. Most of us that 
do site surveys professionally use an Ekahau sidekick (hardware) in conjunction 
with the software.

If you decide to purchase it feel free to reach out to me. A friend of mine is 
a reseller for ekahau and treads people quite fairly.

We plan to begin evaluating site survey software.  I was wondering if anyone 
who has gone through this process
already would be willing to share their opinions on the various software they 
looked at.  On list or direct email.

Thanks!
