Re: Decent tools, on sale

[Jason Machtemes]

I ran into this same issue back in Aug this year and this was their response... 
(Note, I have not purchased and confirmed this yet)

Thank you for contacting The NETSCOUT Technical Assistance Center. 

The engineering team got back to me just when you left the chat room, but the 
G1 definitely does not support a 4096 size certificate/key, while the G2 (green 
model) does support that size. 

I will put in a feature request for the change in cert size for the G1 for you, 
although I believe development is slowing down for that unit since we've 
released the G2. 

I'm not sure, but since it appears you just purchased this unit, you might want 
to check with your sales representative here as to whether you can return the 
unit you have and get the G2 instead, if it better suits your needs. 

Please let me know if I can provide any additional information. 

Best Regards,

?That's actually a pretty interesting question, Chuck. I run the G2 (and G1) 
against 802.1X as well with RADIUS using the longer certs... but- using PEAP 
w/MS-CHAPv2.  Which in this context, is largely irrelevant because you can 
simply ignore the certs. I'm guessing that you're using TLS?

A gentle caution about the Aircheck.  I love the product, but our gen 1 devices 
just took a major utility hit when we changed to a SHA-256 4K cert that the 
device couldn't support.  Now we can't use it for connectivity tests on our 1x 
SSID.  There's a 2K key size limit on the gen 1 Airchecks.

More troubling is that I've had a ticket open with NetScout for almost a month 
to see if the G2's can do better, but they've yet to offer an answer.  I've 
pinged them twice, so it's not an issue of forgetting about my inquiry.  They 
don't seem to know what their device can do.

http://netool.io/ competes with LinkSprinter- is a nice tool on sale right now, 
FYI.  Also NetScout running buy one/get one sale on AirCheck G2- but that sale 
is almost over as well.

Just FYI, both are worth having.
