Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Eduroam adoption (and migration process)

2017-04-27 Thread Curtis K. Larsen
We also use eduroam and a university SSID and one benefit I've seen is that 
when our CISO decided to deprecate PEAP due to the "fake AP/MITM - exposed 
password" issue and favor EAP-TLS - we could easily control our own destiny 
with our own SSID whereas with eduroam we were kind of locked-in to the PEAP 
model.  Lesser security will often result when universal compatibility is the 
goal.  I mean we could force our own users to use EAP-TLS at home and abroad 
but in my opinion we could not truly say that we've done everything possible to 
mitigate the PEAP vulnerability while still propping up a PEAP SSID org-wide 
even if PEAP only ends up being used by visitors.

We currently offer long-term EAP-TLS connections on our university SSID to any 
guest willing to provide an SMS number (Cloudpath Feature).  It turns out that 
the SMS-capable phone carrying population is much larger than those with 
eduroam credentials so far, and phone numbers are possibly more valuable to 
administrators than AD credentials of participating institutions in resolving 
issues.  In my opinion, as onboarding solutions mature the SSID becomes less 
important, and who knows maybe with Hotspot 2.0 completely irrelevant?  
Something to consider at least when making that decision anyway.

There will be no “force move”, but the old .1x SSID won’t be available in the 
fall, so it benefits them to change their config now.   One note, we don’t 
currently support devices that do not support WPA/2 Enterprise (.1x) on our

they support .1x or not), smart tv’s and media devices.  Students are told 
those devices need to be Ethernet-capable.  I suspect we’re at least another 
year away from supporting non-WPA/2 Ent devices on our wireless network.

For many years we had a multicast Haivision/Video Furnace system.  We never 
made the move to get that on wireless, and a few years back we implemented the 
Comcast Xfinity On Campus service.

RE: IPTV deployment

2017-04-27 Thread Adam T Ferrero

  We deployed Xfinity on Campus last summer for 6,000 residents.  Our Comcast 
estimate was max 3 - 5 Gbps additional internet load so we upgraded firewalls 
to accommodate.  Turns out between IPTV and natural growth it was only ~ 1 Gbps 
more than the prior semester.  Almost all of them stream over wireless and we 
have not adjusted the data rates.  Everything is performing well (of course we 
have one AP per suite so coverage is very good).

What is your wireless platform?

We implemented multicast IPTV on Aruba wireless using our existing Haivision 
wired IPTV services. In fact, we helped Aruba test their "Dynamic Multicast 
Optimization" solution.

Generally, for 802.11 networks, multicast is transmitted at the lowest 
transmitted rate. That is bad for multicast video. Since our video streams are 
encrypted, we cannot apply QoS separately to prioritize key frames.

If you wish, I can reach out to our IPTV team to get more information on our 
Haivision (formerly Video Furnace) system.

We ran a Haivision system over cisco wireless using their Media/Video
Stream feature, 2mbit/s streams. Worked as advertised. We have since moved
on to another IPTV system that doesn't require multicast, so we've turned
off those features.

RE: IPTV deployment

2017-04-27 Thread Reimer, Paul
The bandwidth needed for streaming on a phone or tablet is about 2Mbps.

I would suggest these are going to have an impact similar to any normal client 
streaming continuously. That would have to be verified.

So whether that is an acceptable impact is up to you. How many are there? What 
have you got serving the area? Should you consider managing the APs they're on 
and the channel they use?

Otherwise I wouldn't change anything about your mandatory rates to accommodate 
them.

I would say 6Mbps seems on the low side for your 5GHz.

RE: IPTV deployment

2017-04-27 Thread Baugh, Craig
Yes Sir,. both...
I am looking at it from the wireless perspective And my boss is worried :)

Our platform is all Cisco.
8540 controllers (8.3) and a mix of 3502, 3602, 3702, and 3802 WAPs.
Our transmit rates are:
802.11 a
[cid:image001.png@01D2BF60.08566110]
802.11 b/g
[cid:image002.png@01D2BF60.08566110]

Specs show IPTV needs 2Mbps to stream 720p content to client devices.

>From the wireless perspective, have you (or anyone else on this thread),had 
>any problems with IPTV?
Did you have to adjust your data rates since multicast travels at the lowest 
mandatory?

Thank you for your reply.

Craig,

Are you looking at this from a wireless perspective, worried, or both?

What is your wireless platform?

We implemented multicast IPTV on Aruba wireless using our existing Haivision 
wired IPTV services. In fact, we helped Aruba test their "Dynamic Multicast 
Optimization" solution.

Generally, for 802.11 networks, multicast is transmitted at the lowest 
transmitted rate. That is bad for multicast video. Since our video streams are 
encrypted, we cannot apply QoS separately to prioritize key frames.

If you wish, I can reach out to our IPTV team to get more information on our 
Haivision (formerly Video Furnace) system.

Good morning,
I am looking for any advice from colleges that have implemented IPTV services.
Would like to know of any challenges, limitations, or problems that have come 
up during implementation.


Thank you for your help.

Wayfinding, anyone?

2017-04-27 Thread Hector J Rios
Wanted to know if anyone has an app on your campus that allows your users to 
find their way around the university, both indoors and outdoors. I’ve heard 
concerns about providing indoor maps as this could be used for malicious acts 
(even terrorist acts). I wonder if there is information that can back these 
concerns. I know every building, at least in our campus, has to have an 
evacuation plan, and this plan includes a map that is posted for everyone to 
see.
