Thanks David and Eric. It was per destination. Good thoughts I'll look into before trying it again. Thanks much. Mark - Biola IT Network Operations On Wed, Feb 28, 2018 at 7:22 AM, Kenny, Eric wrote: > Hi Mark, > > Have you tried both links individually? If they are different vendors, > one mi

Thanks Sam, Thankfully it’s primarily pre-wave 2 locations where we see this.. Having said that yesterday a single client seemed to be chewing up around 50% airtime updating steam apps, while the other 9 users were having a bad time…. That was wave 2. There are other ways though if needed -- J

Wireless RFP - Preparing to Start the Process

Good afternoon, We've reached the point where we will be starting the groundwork for putting out an RFP to engage vendors with before next summer. For my short time here, this will be the first time I've done this particular system and even though we've overhauled our virtual infrastructure and I

Hi Mark, Have you tried both links individually? If they are different vendors, one might be handling MTU differently, which might upset your CAPWAP tunnels. Just a thought. Thanks, --- Eric Kenny Network Architect Harvard University IT ---

I can’t think of any interaction between EIGRP ECLB and the WLC that would cause this issue without some other additional factor. Are you running per destination or per packet load balancing? If it’s per destination, traffic back to a controller might be on one link that might be dropping. Is

Fascinating. While we are (we are engineers after all) beating the horse senseless, this is interesting to see how others arrive at their decisions. I have always worked for schools where the budget is X. Spend it on spares or get gear out the students, it is on us to make that decision. I ha

One gotcha is the following: Table 6 Key Features Not Supported in Cisco Aironet 1800i, 1810 OEAP, 1810W, 1815, 1830, 1850, 2800, and 3800 Series APs Cisco Air Time Fairness (ATF) Be warned that, if you're using the wave 2 platforms, ATF is not supported according to the latest WLC version 8.6 re

For Aruba shops, I somewhat disagree with the last 3 points. 2% is way overkill for spares just sitting on the shelf. Although you can cycle stock, there is no need to do so. We have had very few DOA Aruba APs and they do not deteriorate with age There is absolutely no need to pull out your sp

I have a background in mathematics and addressed this question scientifically. The number of spares depend on the mean-time-between-failures of an AP (provided by vendors; e.g., Cisco’s 3702 APs have a MTBF of 325000 hours), the number of days it takes to order a new AP (k) and the risk you are
