allow the client to go through Bluesocket to get a "real" IP address

No NAT because of the problem with client identification.

We have several of their boxes. I had to RMA one a while ago and had no
problem. My impression is that their Tech support staff, while helpful, could
use a few more bodies as sometimes their response time is longer than

James,
We have been using the Bluesocket boxes here at Georgia State for a
little over a year and a half now, with some recent deployments, we are
up to 31 servers. We have been generally quite pleased with the results
that we have seen. One of the main reasons we ended up deploying the

We use Bluesocket for our campus WLAN as well. Like you, we are only
using Bluesocket to authenticate against our existing RADIUS/Kerberos
authentication services. The Bluesocket Wireless Gateway (WG-2100) acts
as a DHCP passthrough only, and no VPN or DHCP services are terminated

so far. We have many separate WLANs deployed on campus where we are

On 802.1x...
The idea of 802.1x traffic NOT passing through the AP - it seems to me a
bit vague. I mean, as a part of protocol the traffic is being
exchanged/proxied (via AP) between the supplicant and the Radius server,
therefore it does "pass" through the AP. There is simply no other way. I

Hi Chris,
That's an interesting concept: one of centrally managing a ton of

A Linux or *BSD based VPN system could do that, if configured properly.
OpenBSD is probably the best bet.

Some differences:
* Bluesocket uses web-based interface for authentication, which makes
support of PDA or other non-prevailing OSs possible/easier. As I know,
lots of VPN solutions require client software. Usually they just don't
support PalmOS, WindowCE or MAC or Linux. etc

a few differences:
-bandwidth rate limiting (per user, per port), can your VPN do that?
-enable MAC address authentication for devices
that do not have a VPN client (WIFI phones,...) more are coming these
days.
-How do you distribute the VPN client before
they can join the VPN concentrator?

Our setup:
AP -> VPN Concentrator -> RADIUS -> LDAP
All AP's are on a Layer 2 only VLAN with the VPN as the only way out. We
have full RADIUS accounting which tracks addresses, starts, stops, data
rates. We are only allowing IP through the VPN, so that takes care of
protocols. Only users with
