And worse comes to worse, they could still give you a small discount if you're 
getting a new cisco controller and returning the old material...

With the size of your district maybe you have a spare 5500 or newer lying 
around if you don't want to invest the money right now.  Pick which APs you 
want to use first since this will be a good bulk of your costs, then have Cisco

To future proof your deployment it may be best to upgrade your WLC to a 5520. I 
suggest deploying the x700 series LWAP to support 802.11ac as we have seen a 
large increase in clients supporting it. Here is a comparison chart for the 
various ac enabled LWAPs.

Cisco has nice bundling options so we have opted to use the 3702 after taking 
advantage of the bundling discounts. We use the 2702 in smaller office bundles 
as well, but large buildings with higher density we choose the latter.

You’d be surprised what Cisco will do (any vendor really). I’ve seen scenarios 
where, for example, one were to purchase a bunch of 802.11ac AP’s to replace 
older units, and a free controller wound up in the mix. If you are really 
invested with them, say where you actively participate (in a positive way) in 
moving the product forward e.g. Participate in their advisory groups, then they 
tend to return the favor.

We are on the latest ClearPass. Apparently Aruba recommends turning off TLS 1.2

We are an Aruba shop and had similar issues with TLS1.2 after the November 
update. Turns out our controller software didn't support TLS 1.2 while our 
Clearpass radius server did.  Since we terminated authentication to the 
controller, the radius server never even received an Auth attempt. Termination 
at the Clearpass server resolved the issue in a couple clicks.

Well, a lot of us rushed to get the TLS 1.2 fix about a month or so ago.  We

working for TLS 1.2 when the latest Windows 10 patch turned on TLS 1.2.  Even 
though the 2.2.8.1 (I think that was the freeRadius rev) was installed, 
apparently some left over packages from the previous install was causing 
problems.  That caused us some heart ache last week.

To verify that it is ‘likely’ a TLS 1.2 issue, you should see a successful 
radius authentication for the connection attempt in your logs, then you would 
not see a corresponding DHCP request.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Issue with Android Marshmallow?

My networking team is receiving multiple reports of users who have moved to 
Marshmallow being unable to authenticate and gain access to our wireless.  I 
was wondering if anyone else in the community has dealt with this issue.  As a 
new member of the listserv, I apologize if this is a repeat of an issue someone 
else has raised.  Pertinent information is listed below:

One of our more motivated users reports:


So I was able to get connected into the WiFi.  I did some searching online for 
articles related to this, the biggest one I found was that older Radius 
versions running TLS 1.0.   Android Marshmallow run/forces TLS 1.2, which is 
unsupported by old RADIUS versions.  The full forum reading I've found is 
here.  I'm not 
sure if this has anything to do with our network but it's worth looking into.

As for the fix, on my Nexus 6P I went into Developer options and was able to 
enable "Legacy DHCP clients" under the networking section.  This forces the 
device to run DHCP from Andriod Lollipop instead of Marshmallow.  I then forgot 
the network settings for MetroState, restarted the device, and re-configured 
the connection in WiFi Settings.  I am able to connect to the WiFi and am 
getting a stable connection.  I will watch the connectivity over the next few 
days to see if this is a work around.

I have attached SS from my phone to show where the options are, in order to get 
into Developer option you must tap the "Build number" menu in the 
Settings>About Phone menu, until the phone says, "You are now a developer!".  
The developer options will then show above the "About Phone" menu option in 
settings.

Our Windows Radius server has TLS 1.2 enabled, and has been fully patched.

We’re set for 802.1x, PEAP, MSCHAPv2.

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco LWAP Advice

2015-12-10 Thread McClintic, Thomas
To future proof your deployment it may be best to upgrade your WLC to a 5520. I 
suggest deploying the x700 series LWAP to support 802.11ac as we have seen a 
large increase in clients supporting it. Here is a comparison chart for the 
various ac enabled LWAPs.

Cisco has nice bundling options so we have opted to use the 3702 after taking 
advantage of the bundling discounts. We use the 2702 in smaller office bundles 
as well, but large buildings with higher density we choose the latter.

Hope this helps!

So the only AP still sold new that is supported on a 4404 is the 3502i.

Not much in the way for options on that old platform, but that is what you can 
still buy.  Might be time to look at upgrading that old girl.
Thanks

Hi all,



I'm new to the EduCause community (even though I'm a HS District IT Director 
and Educause is for Higher-Ed..). We're a 135,000 student and 6,000 staff 
district (very large). I am doing a AP deploy for a new high school building (I 
have a Cisco WLC4402-100-K9 installed in the building already) with 
approximately 500 clients connected and wanted to know what Cisco LWAPs 
everyone was using or would recommend for this deploy.



Thanks in advance for your assistance!
