Of the folks who are allowing users to do bonjour services over wifi. Either
thru native multicast , or the enhancements from the various wifi vendors. Has
anyone noticed spectrum issues in dense classrooms? I have a department who is
proposing 12 screens with 12 apple tvs in room with 180
Given that this is our first semester broadcasting the eduroam at Syracuse
University, I wanted to dig into how the new service was being used on campus.
I really didn't expect much, but am already impressed. In the last two weeks,
we've seen logged in eduroamers from:

Thanks for sharing Lee, I've been on the fence myself re: deploying Eduroam.

It might well have resulted in one less call for us too. This is why we use
eduroam as our primary said, stops people trying to set it up failing when
they're already away.
Thanks

I have yet to encounter a WLAN admin that wasn't intrigued by the diversity of
visitors when eduroam is enabled.
And this is the low season for eduroam at the moment!
Check the graph of the US top levels at https://www.eduroam.us/node/232
If I may ask, how many non eduroam visitors do you
I think most of all, they wouldn't like the results even if the wireless
worked. I imagine instructors will at some point expect to be able to
mirror a single device to all twelve screens at once, so they all show the
same thing, and I don't believe that Apple's AirPlay will work that way.
It's my
For what it's worth, we launched eduroam campus wide on January 6th ,
2014. I've seen eduroam'ers from across the pond online from domains such
as:

cornell.edu

prf.cuni.cz

Yes that's definitely the plan to wire the apple tvs. The way they envision
this is having 12 displays and have students break out into smaller
study/collaboration groups on the fly, with modular furniture that they can
move to accomadate. So it wouldn't be an individual instructor
Same here. Using eduroam as our primary has been great so far.

you might take a look at this white paper from Cisco.

I give Cisco and Aerohive, etc. great credit for building in techniques that
might help solve Apple's problems, but also not buying in to making the network
jump through hoops for one device and client type.
To allow for display mirroring (and a lot more functionality) for ALL device
types we
We aren't doing anything to that density but are implementing something
somewhat similar right now. Would certainly be interested to see hear how you
go.
We are doing 3 rooms with these as a bit of a pilot
http://www.mersive.com/products/solstice/
It's basically software that runs on Windows
Our initial idea is for Solstice on our teaching station PCs, generally one per
room (hundreds of them). Then there will likely be other creative uses to be
discovered. Works elegantly on LAN/WLAN with nothing unique required of the
network, so you can envision all sorts of collaboration
Sounds like a much bigger implementation plan than ours :)
I feel we may end up on that kind of path, but to begin with it will just be a
smaller pilot. and see where it goes from there
I do like no effort in the network apart from ensuring ample bandwidth.

It requires zero network reconfiguration, no multicast, and just fits

Hi James,
Not sure what you're looking at, but AppleTV has nothing to do with Mersive.
I'm not trying to sell their stuff, just quite fond of it after the
frustrations of what the network needs to have done to it (bigger networks are
worse) for AppleTV.
I see TCO of AppleTV as $99 (for

Hi James,
You are right it doesn't do mirroring as such for IOS. The mersive guys are
pretty helpful, if you are interested it would be worth having a chat with them
anyway, they might be pushing for such a feature in the future.
As you say ultimately it's about choosing something that fits
I've been **very** happy using AirServer (www.airserverapp.com) instead of
AppleTVs for mirroring. The software installs to a PC or Mac, and allows
the computer to act as an AppleTV. It even supports multiple-simultaneous
connections and recording(!) - (recording is currently Mac only, coming
soon
