I have to tout Meraki a little here, especially for environments that are dynamic or open to experimentation. The online, hosted controller (can't bring myself to say "cloud controller") makes making serious network changes -- say, special event networks segregated from your normal wireless, reassigning VLANs, things that I would normally avoid -- brain-dead simple. They've also been extremely open to new feature suggestions, and there's zero effort to trying them out safely. -- // Miles Davis - mi...@cs.stanford.edu - http://www.cs.stanford.edu/~miles // Computer Science Department - Computer Facilities // Stanford University ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.
