Hey Julian, Thanks for the reply. What was the reason you kept Bradford once you decided to deploy ClearPass? Does ClearPass not work well for the wired network? -Brian -Original Message- From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv

Bruce, We have a remote proctor site adjacent to one of our campuses that has been online for 7 months using a pair of Ubiquiti Airfiber 5. The testing site is CCTV intensive and we see ~300Mbps across this link very reliability pretty much all day long. We also push standard network and VoIP

Hi Eriks, Question: are you using radius proxies to front end controller auth requests to a Load balancer that sits in front of the Radius backend servers? Is the problem the bottleneck at the wlan controllers or the Radius servers regarding concurrent loading? Thanks for your help with this

HI Bruce, For the last link we moved to their newer Flex 4G-UHA model. We had one (two) failures with that link, I am still awaiting root cause analysis from Bridgewave enginnering. Tip; use their optics (finstar). Chad From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv

Lee, We use Fortinet Fortigate appliances extensively with great success at handling P2P traffic. As a whole, we generally block the entire FortiGuard P2P category (among others), and then whitelist legitimate applications higher in the policy set. Skype, Steam, and Battle.net are a few

We have been running a pair of Bridgewave GE60 units for several years to link to some remote buildings. We recently learned that these units are reaching/reached EOL, so it is time to begin looking at replacing this hardware. I was looking to see what others have used for this type of link.

We're using Exinda appliances on our campuses, and we're very happy with them. We've set up a simple rule set; 1- block all the P2P traffic 2 -ignore this white list 3 -all other traffic gets bandwidth shared evenly The devices are capable of much more detailed rule sets and features, but

Apologies for the dual-posting for those who fall into that. I'm wondering if those schools running Palo Alto boxes and the like might be willing to share what your appliances are classifying as the top 10-15 P2P apps seen these days, whether you choose to block/limit them or not? Just want to
