RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Private IP space for wireless users- anyone?

2010-03-01 Thread Patrick Goggins
We've been using /21's for a couple of years on the wireless and /20's on the 
wired side for a couple of years now without any real problems. The only 
feature we've been using on the access points to prevent some of the 
non-required traffic has been applying ether-type filters to block IPv6, 
Appletalk, and IPX when we can. We looked at using /22's on the wired side for 
the residence halls a couple years ago but found a number of games required all 
clients to be in the same broadcast domain.

Hi Aaron,

I asked about this in April 2008 right before we did our first /21 and had 
replies of sites using /20s without problems. As David said, "if using cisco 
wlc, the default behaviour is to block broadcast and multicast traffic from 
being sent out the WLAN to other wireless client devices". Other vendors may 
have similar, we have had no problem with /21 on wireless. We do not do this on 
any wired LAN, just the controller based lwap and now capwap wireless.

thanks!

(sorry for v. late thread response, just getting back to the list
after some time off)

Our wireless services use RFC1918 and route back to a pair of
Linux-based routing firewalls running in failover, doing NAT.
Nothing particularly special there.

We did develop some software in-house to create NetFlow v5 from the
NAT taking place on those boxes, which allows quite easy tracing of
user activity:

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Private IP space for wireless users- anyone?

2009-12-17 Thread Ken LeCompte

Jamie,

We have a Bluesocket/Meru implementation. Both companies perform  
broadcast suppression by using proxy ARP at the access points. Meru  
also converts a lot of broadcast frames into unicast at the access  
point for the same reason. In any event, I was apprehensive about the  
move initially, but the claims seem accurate as the broadcast traffic  
seems quite limited at individual clients.


Thanks.

Ken

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Private IP space for wireless users- anyone?

2009-12-15 Thread Ken Boynton
Hey Lee,

We have approximately 8200 users during peak times but that is split between
two SSIDs. For our secure SSID we are authenticating using Cisco ACS which
we are logging, this gives us the NetID (username) to 10net address. We are
doing our PAT at the border firewall which is logging the translations.

Holler if you need further info.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Private IP space for wireless users- anyone?

2009-12-15 Thread Jamie Savage
Careful what you wish for..I can recall installing my first AP and 
wishing/watching for days until I got my first wireless user..now I 
wish they'd get lost!...;+) 

 We peak at approx. 6000 IPs dhcp'd out but only approx 80% of those IPs 
are actually used.  The rest are sucked up by devices whose radios are 
simply powered on.  We still assign public IPs and are good for a while 
yet but there may come a day when PAT will be necessary.  We try to make 
our subnets as large as we dare.  Eg. A /22 subnet facilitates a more 
efficient use of IPs than 4 /24s.

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Private IP space for wireless users- anyone?

2009-12-15 Thread Case, Brandon J
Our usage is peaking around 3600 right now. We have been trying to come up with 
some kind of a NAT solution since that number is only going to go up, and 
quickly because we're working on tripling our number of wireless access points. 
We don't have a good solution yet but I wanted to let you know you're not the 
only ones in that boat. If we do find a viable solution I'll share here.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Private IP space for wireless users- anyone?

2009-12-15 Thread heath.barnhart

Hector,

How much disk space are you using for the 30 days of log? Just curious.

Lee, we are doing PAT at our border with 4 public IPs. I think during 
peak usage we might have 2000 simultaneous connections, but the usual is 
probably closer to 1500

space to save up to 90 days. 


It's been very effective. As a side note, we would not be able to
maintain our wireless if we did not have a private IP space. Just this
semester we had to increase the IP subnet for our library. On finals
week we saw over 800 users!!

The only problem we ran into were a couple of websites blocking us  
because to the it would look like a DOS attack. After contacting the  
sites and notifying them that the single ip they were seeing was just  
the public ip for the NAT network.

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Private IP space for wireless users- anyone?

2009-12-14 Thread Hector J Rios
Lee, 

We use private IPs, we PAT at the border and we log all transactions on
a Juniper firewall so that we can keep a log of the private-to-public
translations. We keep 30 days of logs right now. We are buying more disk
space to save up to 90 days. 

It's been very effective. As a side note, we would not be able to
maintain our wireless if we did not have a private IP space. Just this
semester we had to increase the IP subnet for our library. On finals
week we saw over 800 users!!

Thanks,

Hector Rios

 Wondering how many other schools are using private IP space for
wireless users, how you accomplish the NAT, and what mechanisms you use
for user tracking for the private-public mappings for
forensic/investigatory purposes.

Thanks-
