We currently setup dedicated PSK’s for everything, but that’s such a pain so are currently going through the process of something new. As a short term measure to improve things (since at times we end up with 5 additional PSK’s and cisco’s SSID assignment is a bit crappy) we have a single PSK th

We used to set up custom SSIDs for conferences and special events on a subset of our APs with PSKs, and the traffic ended up on a dedicated VLAN with internet-only access. It was cumbersome and made our APs unstable with the frequent configuration changes. We switched to creating a special OU/gr

We have a guest ssid with a click to accept use agreement that works for most conferences we have. On occasion we will need to create a unique PSK for a one time event but that is maybe once or twice a year and usually centered around technology and accessing specific resources either on campus or

Hector, I’d recommend starting with your Institutional Research group and ask them who they consider cohorts for Louisiana State. From there, I’d query those universities directly as they’ll likely provide useful/actionable data vs a general request here. That is, my numbers won’t do you a lot

For CWA, you need to put the MAC address into a guest endpoint group. Then, if the endpoint is in guest endpoint group, just put them on instead of the portal. Way easier than LWA + sleeping client. Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 27, 2017, at 6:50 AM, Yahya M. Jaber wrote: > > Hi, > > Thanks
