We have Bridgewave in production but lately have been installing the Ubiquiti AirFiber (AF24) product. Very reliable and inexpensive. Longest link is about a kilometer. On Mon, Jul 25, 2016 at 10:39 AM, Daniel Wurst wrote: > We (Denison University) have been using Aruba

Anybody using Ridesystems GPS app?

2016-07-25 Thread Sullivan, Don
We are looking at using Ridesystems GPS app for our shuttle service. The riders will access the app while they are on the shuttle bus. Apparently there is an issue because they are riding along the edge of our wi-fi service out of our buildings where the phones pick up the wi-fi but not enough

Brian, We have pools of /22 /23/ and /24. We separate our pools from students vs fac/staff (still on the same ssid). It may be ok to do /16. I know that Aruba does a lot to prevent broadcast storms, but I feared the overhead of one large segment might have on it. We also give students a

Currently on our Aruba installation we have created VLAN pools for different portions of the network(Student, Academic, etc), these pools primarily consist of /23 networks. Bruce Entwistle Network Manager University of Redlands From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv

The only real reason to segment these networks is to prevent broadcast storms, and the wireless controllers tend to have built in broadcast suppression rendering this harmless. I changed our main SSID from several /22s to a single /16 a while ago to negate the need to keep adding more subnets as

We have about 50 /24s. The Aruba controllers hash the MAC address and drop users into one of the /24s. We are at about 5,000 daily users. We have broadcasts and multicasts turned off for these wireless nets. We don't use VLAN pools. ajs On Mon, Jul 25, 2016 at 10:21 AM, Brian Helman

We are using several different sizes on our Cisco 8510 controllers equally divided between our three MPLS areas, as follows: 9 - /16 9 - /19 6 - /22 6 - /23 3 - /24 - a small subnet for AppleTV devices that is going away within a month Since we use the 10. address space for wireless, and

We are in the process of moving from a controllerless vendor to Aruba. Our current design is very segmented, to keep wireless device broadcasts from overwhelming the network and AP's (we had this problem back in 11g days). Presently, we've limited segments to /23's (give or take). In your

We were seeing the issue especially with Cisco switches with DHCP Snooping & Dynamic ARP Inspection. When the client first authenticates, the switch sends an Accounting start, but it does not yet have the Framed-IP Address. The switch later sends an Interim Update that includes the
