We use a separate ssid for 5Ghz on our Ruckus devices. We mainly do it
to provide "N" series devices a clear channel. By default, if they can't
see the new ssid than they are using old stuff and we urge students to
upgrade.

Has anyone here considered creating a separate SSID for the 5GHz band?
The ideas is to encourage users to exclusively use 5 GHZ over 2.4.
We've implemented band-steering, but it was suggested this would insure
that users use 5GHz and not fall back to 2.4.
Thanks.
