If you have residence halls, you may want to anticipate this and take it up 
with you safety department.  Ours did actual testing and confirmed Aruba’s 
recommendations.  Now it’s them saying what the standard is rather than us.

The 9 foot requirement came from the student's dad who "works in the 
industry and knows these things".  I actually found the FCC 20 cm notice in 
the Cisco AP materials also.  Now I've got something to present if this 
becomes a trend.

Yes, it sets a precedent that you are going to meet the students’ needs and 
protect the university.  If the parents and the students think it’s an 
issue, why try and force the matter when it is easy enough to move the AP 
and let them plug into the network through a port in the room.



If they ask for the wireless on the entire campus to be turned off or in all 
of the classrooms the student is in, then it’s a different story.


While this is not an ADA issue, the ADA laws talk of “reasonable 
accommodation”.  I would be hard pressed to believe this request was not 
reasonable.



Ridiculous yes, but still very reasonable.

Coincidentally, we just moved an AP out of a student's room because her

RE: Handling Non 802.1x Devices on the Enterprise Network

Let me guess: TVs and gaming devices for the living spaces, right?

We have an SSID for only those devices that appears only in the residence 
buildings. Authenticated device registration for each MAC address is manual 
while we implement something better. We *have* been denying registrations for 
devices which we recognize as capable of 802.1x, but that may be gone with the 
technical process to replace the current manual.

Current annoyance: chromecast, which expects both pieces to be on the same 
broadcast domain, unhindered by APs with device isolation turned on. (It's the 
new vendor-agnostic AppleTV)

We are currently testing this with Active Directory fronted by
freeradius. There is a single ESSID. User logs in to the 802.1X
prompt, freeradius authenticates the user, then connects via LDAP to
the AD and looks at group membership. This determines the VLAN
override ID that is sent to our wireless controller.

Lee,

We have AVC working in PI 2.2.0  - our source is netflow from 2 x ASR-1006 edge

RE: Lab Computers and wireless

2015-09-01 Thread Watters, John
We do this with a single WPA2 Enterprise SSID using VLAN Override. Our 
FreeRadius Servers authenticates against our campus-wide LDAP directory and 
receives from LDAP not only a good or bad for the authentication but also a 
VLAN to drop the person into. This VLAN value (soon to be changed to a VLAN 
name for more flexibility in our new MPLS world) is generated by some back-end 
process and stored in the LDAP directory entries. Currently we drop folks into 
faculty/staff, student/eduroam, and HIPAA VLANs. A couple ore categories are on 
the horizon.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Lab Computers and wireless

2015-09-01 Thread Rob Taylor
I can think of a few ways to do this. I have meru but am migrating away from 
it. 

1. Use different radius servers for different ssid's, and have each radius 
server only authenticate members of it's respective group(which requires
   explicit group membership, not just an active account existing in AD).
   I would think that you would want to use vlans to separate the students and 
faculty as well.

2. While I have never used this feature I'm pretty sure with meru(as with many 
other wireless systesm) you can use radius attributes to drop users onto 
different vlans.
   So, you could reduce your ssid's to one ssid, and have the radius server 
return the appropriate information based on group membership(this also requires 
explicit group membership)
   , and that would control which vlan the user land in when they authenticate 
to the wireless.
   Only downside of this is if you need to test something from the other groups 
perspective you will need a test username in that group, or you will need
   to move the user under test from one group to another.

There may be other ways to do it as well.

Say what you want, but I know Wi-Fi makes me sick every year around this time.  
I can’t sleep, I eat less, I drink more, and it’s all Wi-Fi’s fault.

Handling Non 802.1x Devices on the Enterprise Network

2015-09-01 Thread Troy Lynn Wiseman
We are trying to figure out how to handle non 802.1x devices on our enterprise 
network.  We are a Cisco shop and currently are broadcasting 4 SSIDs including 
a guest SSID that is non 802.1x.  We are concerned with how to give access to 
non 802.1x devices in our residence halls.  We were wondering how others are 
tackling this issue.

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Handling Non 802.1x Devices on the Enterprise Network

2015-09-01 Thread Case, Brandon J
We are doing pretty much the same thing as well, although without the DHCP 
tie-in.

We set up a separate SSID for gaming consoles/media devices in the residence 
halls and have students register them via one of ISE's portals. We did set up 
an authorization policy with a logical profile to prevent 1x-capable devices 
from using the SSID. They get stuck in a walled garden and can only see a page 
that essentially says they have to connect the device they're currently using 
to the 1x SSID (which is the same one we broadcast all over campus). The 
profiling component of ISE works pretty well most of the time but we have had a 
real headache dealing with XboxOne's since they are essentially Windows 8 
machines and we drop Windows 8 clients in the walled garden. I ended up writing 
a few custom rules in the profiler that catch most of them and we handle the 
rest on an individual basis.

The whole system has worked out pretty well considering the scope (about 12,000 
students in 15 residence halls). It hasn't been without its share of bumps but 
overall we're pleased with it.

Thanks,

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Handling Non 802.1x Devices on the Enterprise Network

2015-09-01 Thread Kevin McCormick

Hello Troy,

We did the same thing until this year. We just upgraded our Cloud Path 
server and now have on-boarding. For devices students go to a website 
and register the MAC address of the device and then connect to a SSID 
using a preshared key.
We still have our guest SSID available but have plans to stop using it

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Parents sue school, say Wi-Fi signal making son sick.

We are getting complaints about this from our business areas, Enrollment 
Services etc. I was curious where the 9 feet from an AP recommendation came 
from.

Yes, it sets a precedent that you are going to meet the students’ needs and 
protect the university.  If the parents and the students think it’s an issue, 
why try and force the matter when it is easy enough to move the AP and let them 
plug into the network through a port in the room.

If they ask for the wireless on the entire campus to be turned off or in all of 
the classrooms the student is in, then it’s a different story.

While this is not an ADA issue, the ADA laws talk of “reasonable 
accommodation”.  I would be hard pressed to believe this request was not 
reasonable.

Ridiculous yes, but still very reasonable.

Coincidentally, we just moved an AP out of a student's room because her parents 
were certain that it was a health hazard to be within 9 feet of an AP.  No 
point in arguing with an upset mom.

Say what you want, but I know Wi-Fi makes me sick every year around this time.  
I can’t sleep, I eat less, I drink more, and it’s all Wi-Fi’s fault.

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Parents sue school, say Wi-Fi signal making son sick.

2015-09-01 Thread Chanowski, John
I don’t know where the 9’ recommendation comes from but the installation guide 
for Aruba’s 220 series access point (3x3x3,ac) contains the following RF 
Radiation Exposure Statement: “This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation 
exposure limits. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum 
distance of 7.9 inches (20 cm) between the radiator and your body for 2.4 GHz 
and 5 GHz operations.” Based on this 9 feet should be way safe and 
non-controversial☺
