Same here. Overall traffic peaks were higher, but our base levels grow quite a 
bit every year, so I would say the percentage of increase wasn't as high as 
last year, but the traffic increase was significant. We saw peaks on our 
Internet connection of about a gig higher than normal for time of day but they 
were well within our burstable limit, and another gig or so increase in Akamai 
traffic. This persisted on and off until around midnight.

We didn't see as sharp of an increase for this, but overall traffic reached 
about the same level for us on iOS 8 as it did last year for iOS 7.

This is what we saw for iOS 8:

And this is what we saw for iOS 7 last year:

Thanks Lee for digging up the link for Akamai signup.



The Akamai caching definitely kicked in for us, offloading up to over a Gig's 
worth.



If you look at a graph of our Internet traffic versus Akamai server traffic 
(don't know if they'll come through the listserv) you can see that our Internet 
traffic took a little jump right at 1:00 PM, but then settled down to normal 
levels when the Akamai server traffic spiked up, taking over the load. Overall 
though, so far today, the traffic levels from IOS8 haven't been too bad. Maybe 
we'll see more when the kiddies get out of class.

 For those of you impacted by such things, have you considered asking

 Akamai to install a local caching appliance on your campus? We did a

 number of years ago, it was free, and greatly reduces the impact on

 our commodity internet while boosting update speeds significantly.



 I know Apple is starting to roll out their own CDN, but for now, there

 are a lot of companies besides Apple using Akamai, so it's worth it.



 We also just established free direct peering with Netflix. Big

It looks like the space requirements for the IOS update to 8.0 kept a high
percentage of devices from being able to get the update. Lots of upset IOS
device owners on our campus, especially the ones with 16GB IOS devices.
Looks like the update requires roughly 4.4GB of space before it will allow
the device to download the update.

update tends to bring a lot of app updates along with it. I just opened my

with 1s and 2s more than usual at other times over the last couple weeks.

I noticed one issue with IOS 8. When trying to add attachment to the message 
while using web based email(Yahoo Mail and our UoG web mail), it takes forever. 
I can add attachment while using the email App without issue. I was using an 
IPAD 3. I see the same issue in both our Cisco and Aruba wireless deployments. 

Anyone see the same issue?

 Hi Pete,



 Do you have a link for Akamai?  After reading this, I tried to find
out
 where to apply, but I couldn't find it.



 Thanks.

Actually there is not an option to add attachment in ios email app. I was just 
trying to attach a photo to the message and I did that by tapping on the email 
body area and selecting Insert photo or video.

I can add attachment while using the email App without issue. I was using an

Anyone see the same issue?

That requirement is only for OTA updates. If those users connected
directly to the computer with iTunes, the requirement is far less.

It looks like the space requirements for the IOS update to 8.0 kept a
high
percentage of devices from being able to get the update. Lots of upset
IOS
device owners on our campus, especially the ones with 16GB IOS devices.
Looks like the update requires roughly 4.4GB of space before it will
allow
the device to download the update.

 The Akamai caching definitely kicked in for us, offloading up to over

 If you look at a graph of our Internet traffic versus Akamai server
 traffic (don’t know if they’ll come through the listserv) you can see
that
 our Internet traffic took a little jump right at 1:00 PM, but then
settled
 down to normal levels when the Akamai server traffic spiked up,

 For those of you impacted by such things, have you considered asking
 Akamai to install a local caching appliance on your campus? We did a
 number of years ago, it was free, and greatly reduces the impact on our
 commodity internet while boosting update speeds significantly.

 I know Apple is starting to roll out their own CDN, but for now, there
 are a lot of companies besides Apple using Akamai, so it's worth it.

 We also just established free direct peering with Netflix. Big

 For those of you impacted by such things, have you considered asking 

 Akamai to install a local caching appliance on your campus? We did a 

 number of years ago, it was free, and greatly reduces the impact on 

 our commodity internet while boosting update speeds significantly.

 

 I know Apple is starting to roll out their own CDN, but for now, there

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] iOS 8 drops tomorrow

2014-09-17 Thread Jeffrey Sessler
And for those that are interested, here is the NetFlix peering info:
 
https://www.netflix.com/openconnect
 
There is both peering and an appliance option. For the caching appliance, you'd 
need to see 5 Gbps in peak daily Netflix traffic. If your peak NetFlix traffic 
is under 5 Gbps, then peering is the way to go.
 
No matter what - it doesn't hurt to sign up. They seem very EDU friendly. I'd 
really like to see them implement the ISP Speed Index for EDUs - something else 
to brag about on the college ranking sites! 
 
best,
Jeff

We didn't see as sharp of an increase for this, but overall traffic 
reached about the same level for us on iOS 8 as it did last year for iOS 7.


This is what we saw for iOS 8:

And this is what we saw for iOS 7 last year:

Hi Pete,

Do you have a link for Akamai?  After reading this, I tried to find 
out where to apply, but I couldn't find it.


Thanks.

 For those of you impacted by such things, have you considered asking

 Akamai to install a local caching appliance on your campus? We did a

 number of years ago, it was free, and greatly reduces the impact on

 our commodity internet while boosting update speeds significantly.



 I know Apple is starting to roll out their own CDN, but for now, there

 are a lot of companies besides Apple using Akamai, so it's worth it.



 We also just established free direct peering with Netflix. Big

 improvement there too.

We’re trying out the new application based bandwidth controls on our Aruba 
controllers.  They’ve worked so far in testing, so we’re hoping that’ll keep 
the iOS devices from saturating everything tomorrow.

If you have access to OS X Yosemite Beta Server you can install an Apple 
cacheing server on this OS. We are trying to set one up here in anticipation of 
the downloads. Apple is shy on the documentation for this feature so if anyone 
can share any success in this setup please pass it along to the list.

We've been trying the same on a Mavericks server. A huge limitation is for the 
out-of-the-box magic to happen, all your clients need to live behind a single 
NAT IP.

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] iOS 8 drops tomorrow

2014-09-16 Thread Wier, Timothy A.
So I have this working right now but not real happy in how I got it to work. 
Basically we are using policy NAT to give the server and the client the same 
public IP address just when they go to Apple. Anything to 17.0.0.0/8 gets the 
same public IP address. I'd like to refine that down but haven't had a chance 
to figure out the IP ranges. That and the fact that these could change without 
notice isn't helpful. I can say that so far this appears to be working without 
any adverse effects. We'll see how it works tomorrow.
