We’re a much smaller campus, but we keep a handful of the oldest models in
stock as spares – in the range of 4-5 APs. These serve a couple of purposes:
· Temporary expansion of coverage for occasional events; we have
locations where we may additional capacity 1 or 2 times a year.
·
We are a smaller campus, and have experienced a very low failure rate, but
still try to keep at least one spare of each type of AP that is currently
installed on campus.

We are an Aerohive shop. We keep a set of current models for deployment that
serves as spare stock. With that said, based on the average turnaround time
for RMA units, we’ve probably only had as many as 2 of a given model in use as
a replacement for a failed unit at the same time once or
We are on Aruba and keep very little in planned, offline inventory. Most APs
have a lifetime warranty and we don’t seem many storm related failures. Much
like Chuck, our normal deployment stocks can provide spares when needed. We
will then send any defective units back to Aruba for warranty
We don’t keep a percentage. We’ve got 13,000 APs, and we replace a handful
each month. We make sure we’ve got a suitable replacement or substitute for
all production gear, but we don’t necessarily keep a dedicated repair stock.
The normal quantity that flows in and out of our shop is usually
Hi All,
I’m curious to know the size of your spare gear inventories. Do you keep a
percentage of each model of AP in inventory, and what is your reasoning?
Storms? Last minute/emergency wireless coverage needs?
What percentage of your live gear do you keep as offline inventory? (100 live
APs
Thanks Bruce.

We also have an instance of the Ookla speedtest at the University of
Washington. One thing I notices is for clients on private IP space, the
speedtest shows a NATed IP, even though the server is on campus. This is
because not everything is local. Anyway, having someone send me a screenshot
That is what we use.
