But the question becomes do we tag our students? That is the sticky question.

The best you’ll get (per the manufacturers) is “a region” which is going to be a large square footage (not a single room) and not even necessarily on the same floor of the building. Nor even IN the building (could be outside) etc. Having said that, if you want to try it, as someone noted there are plugins for not only Splunk but I know Aruba has an overlay they’re offering for free and Cisco has something that I hesitate to say is free but might be. So if you have time and resources and wanted to play, you have some no-cost options. The best location solutions that may be integrated in to APs are BLE-based and out of that, the level of accuracy will always be orders of magnitude better than WiFi location but will vary depending on the other end – standard BLE chirping from things is not accurate. A BLE tag and/or phone with BLE and an app will be quite accurate. ___________ Jennifer Minella, CISSP, HP MASE VP of Engineering & Security Carolina Advanced Digital, Inc. www.cadinc.com<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cadinc.com%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cilyons%40ROLLINS.EDU%7Cc406368198b644a2984c08d8f552d221%7Cb8e8d71a947d41dd81dd8401dcc51007%7C0%7C0%7C637529084091698541%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C2000&sdata=bLU87LCtDQbXbCvIPEVBa7aTVG6wOAZPEuGrvhYWWzc%3D&reserved=0> j...@cadinc.com<mailto:j...@cadinc.com> 919.460.1313 Main Office 919.539.2726 Mobile/text [CAD LOGO EMAIL SIG] From: Jerry Bucklaew <j...@buffalo.edu> Sent: Thursday, April 1, 2021 4:09 PM Subject: Re: Wi-Fi and Covid We had the same discussions and the same conclusion, wifi is not good for this. One reason is you can’t trust the result. You can’t say a person was in a certain building because they may have forgot their phone, not registered yet. You can’t say a person was not in a building because many devices registered to a person are stationary and connect even when the person is not there. So any data you pull is inconclusive at best.

It's nice when you can reuse existing overhead, but I don't think 2.4/5/6 radio is the answer. You're just begging for false positives.
