In terms of pros/cons with going to Open-Source over Commercial for VOIP,
what should we be looking at?
I'm extremely hesitant to base this critical infrastructure on open-source,
although Asterisk seems like a mature product.

We looked at community support, stability, and ease of integration with our
other VoIP equipment. We looked at FreeSWITCH, sipXecs, and Asterisk when
looking for a voicemail/IVR/Conference calling system, but felt that Asterisk
was the better fit for us as its online community and information
I just heard a pitch for MERU and it almost sounds to good. Is anyone running
MERU and if so how do you like it and what problems have you run into ?
Thanks.

Hi Randy,
Morrisville has been a happy Meru customer since 2007. We have over 800 AP320s
blanketing the entire campus. We were their first 11n customer on a new
controller platform, so we had our share of bugs, but Meru helped us through
them years ago.
I’d be happy to answer any specific
Randy,
We have about 1100 AP320s right now and are installing a few hundred more over
the next month or two. We have been very happy with this system. There have
been no major issues and everything has worked as advertised. There have been
minor issues, as there are with every product, but
We have ~2300 APs on campus and are satisfied with the system.
There's some functionality (VLAN pooling, Native IPv6 support) that we
would like to see in the product.

Thanks that is comforting to hear. The deadlocking issues I read about were
the only things that caused me to worry when placing this in production for our
Voicemail, IVR, and Conferencing solution. But they have been up for 8 months
without any reported issues plus it is saving us a good
Winthrop University uses MERU and is pleased with the choice. Let me know if
you want contact info for our engineering folks.

Randy,
Franklin and Marshall College uses the Meru system. We have over 500
APs in production. We are very happy with the system. Feel free to
contact me directly if you would like more information.

A couple years ago we tested Meru, Aruba and Cisco wireless out in one of our
buildings to see which system would best fit our environment. During the Meru
test we had a serious failure caused by a bug in the code. Later I found out
there was a work around, but as a result of that I had the
I was told by our local college last year already that Meru doesn't support
IPv6 -- is that still the case?

Meru currently supports IPv6 in bridging only mode, so you lose some of
Meru's proprietary traffic management features.
In testing I've had issues with SLAAC, but Illinois has not, so your mileage
may vary. I haven't tested it since version 3.6 of their code.
Our campus is currently routing
We plan on rolling out IPv6 on our secured SSID by at least World IPv6
day and have been running on a test SSID for several weeks now.
Using RA to assign the addresses.
No issues so far.
We have only tested it on 4.0 MR2.
