Just some additional clarifications regarding Iowa's experience. 1. Access to raw data is limited which results in the following: a. We found that their Radio Attach Success Rate measurement doesn't breakout into detail where a failure occurred (802.11 Auth, 802.11 Assoc, 802.1x Auth,

Vocera vs. Microwave

2013-06-04 Thread Curtis K. Larsen (UIT-Network)
We had some voice degradation problems with Vocera in a clinical setting where there was a breakroom with an old microwave right next to areas where Vocera was used heavily. We duplicated the problem by turning the microwave on. I suggested maybe buying a new microwave that would hopefully

Non-802.1x devices on wireless...

I seem to remember seeing some discussion a while ago about non 802.1x capable devices on wireless. We're a Cisco wireless shop, and currently run 2, about to be 3 (with the addition of eduroam) SSID's. Is anyone running a specific SSID for these non-802.1x capable devices? Perhaps using WEP

Starting this fall we will have eduroam and an open SSID for guests and non-8021x capable devices. Those devices will use MAC auth with a registration process. Guests will hit a guest registration system. Tim * * *Tim Cappalli, *Network Engineer LTS | Brandeis University x67149 | (617)

RF interference from 802.11

2013-06-04 Thread Julian Y Koh
Has anyone had to deal with researchers claiming that 802.11 RF causes interference with their laboratory experiments and apparatus? We're getting rumblings out of our Physics department - they are trying to prevent APs from getting installed in their area because of what they say are highly

Tim, In regards to your open SSID, how do you sway everyone from just jumping on that instead of using eduroam? Do you worry at all about someone sniffing the wireless traffic and getting someone else's MAC address and then changing theirs to avoid registration? Andy Poirier Network

When our new physics building was built, some of the professors specifically asked for no wireless in the basement lab area, and we complied. now, students are specifically asking for better wireless coverage as they get some leakage from the fist floor. to date, there have been no impact to

The faculty in our Physics department had concerns as well as one researcher in Chemistry. Per agreement, we installed wireless in the same manner as anywhere else on campus but we turned the power down very low (Cisco 3502i lightweight access points with power level 5 in the 2.4 GHz range) near

We restrict some services on open. Also, as part of the registration process, their device will be configured for eduroam and the open SSID will be removed from their network list. They could hop back on if they want. It's their choice. Tim ** Tim Cappalli*, *Network Engineer LTS | Brandeis

Hello Jason, We also use Cisco. Like you we found the bonjour gateway features worked, but did not provide location control. In some cases our academics have multiple AppleTV's in the one location and don't mind that they are all available. In other locations, they only want to see the local
