Survey on Institution Guest Networking

[Charles Rumford]

Recently, the University of Pennsylvania set out looking into new
options for our guest network access. We are looking both into new
captive portal options along policies related to the guest network and
the guest network architecture.

Over the last couple of years, I have talked with a number engineers
from a number of different institutions regarding their guest networking
offerings and policies regarding guest traffic. While I have a lot of
word of mouth information, I thought having a formal survey would be a
good way to gather the information I'm interested in.

Please take 5-10 minutes and fill out the following survey:

https://upenn.co1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_bmc4A1mogPmYTml

I will close the survey this Thursday (2015-12-03) and analyze the
responses. Once I have have all the results, I will email them out to
the different lists.

Thank you in advance for your help with collecting this information!

Would you mind sharing how you are using the beacons?

We've done a pilot with one of our schools with 50 beacons - seemed to work 
pretty well for what they were looking for.  Now we are looking at seeing how 
many other schools/departments might be interested in signing up, since ideally 
we would like the number of different apps to be as small as possible.

Basic wayfinding within a building.  i.e., tell me how to get from wherever I 
am to room .  We also tested location-based alerts, and they work, but that 
wasn't of primary interest.
