Wireless in Dorms

Good morning. Let me say first off, we’re nearly a complete Cisco shop other than our Firewalls right now. We are running 3 – Cisco 5508 Wireless Lan Controllers and Cisco WCS. The AP’s in the Dorm’s and Greek houses are all 1142N AP’s and have been spaced accordingly by Cisco and by us

I think that the Marriott court case needs to be put into perspective. Many of us have been quarantining rogue APs without any trouble. The Marriott case is somewhat different. They were preventing all Wi-Fi from being enabled and they were selling theirs as the only Wi-Fi around. BTW, rogue

That would work if the student plugs into one of the LAN switch ports on the wireless router (when they do a lot of times that causes problems with rogue DHCP servers), but we more often see them plugging it into the internet port so we only see 1 MAC/IP address. This also wouldn’t solve the

As I read the case, sending deauth's is exactly what the Marriot's system was doing. We used don't have that bad of a rogue issue since we upgraded our WiFi in the dorms three years ago. I think I had 3 this year, and I just track them down the best I can (by me I mean my student worker), and

This our first year introducing wireless in the dorms and in the past we let students bring their own APs from a limited list of approved AP's that we tested (routers not allowed) to make up for us not providing wifi. You're going to run into the same issues in typical dense dorm rooms but

That has been our approach. We have 100% coverage in residences and there isn’t usually a good reason to have an offending device with the exception of devices that just won’t work on our Enterprise network that Lee had mentioned. We have found that once we explain the situation to students,

Also forgot to mention that you can look at TTL in the IP packets as an indicator of a NAT router. Routers are required to decrement the TTL so that's another possible method of detection. On 10/16/2014 11:40 AM, Hunter Fuller wrote: If the user connects a home gateway box (or anything else

Do you mind sharing what system/method you use to record the mac-notify messages and to parse them? We also have mac-notification setup but Cisco doesn't send a user friendly notification but If-Indexes with VLANs in hex instead. Its' very helpful to have put a pain in the ass to parse. On
