I agree with the RFP idea.

When we last did an RFP and in-house demos & proof of concepts, we were 
surprised at what was offered by Aruba Networks. They even worked with us to 
support multicast video on wireless.

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 
“give” you the controller for them.  ;)

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.

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/wireless/buyers-guide.html#~indoorac

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!

Even though it’s a bit more work an RFP is a good idea.  Even if you are happy 
with your current vendor it helps with getting the best pricing.  On several 
occasions I’ve virtually eliminated the “Cisco premium” everyone expects.  Now 
ongoing SmartNet maintenance costs are another matter.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] request for info on WiFi Analyzer Pro software

2015-12-11 Thread Devyn Moore

We use the Ekahau Site Survey Professional package which comes with a spectrum 
analyzer (Metageek Chanalyzer). The site survey planning, troubleshooting and 
reporting features are incredible (especially if you use Cisco and have 
WCS/Prime Infrastructure). We have used the Yellowjacket Wi-Fi analyzer in the 
past and the Ekahau/Chanalyzer package blows it out of the water in terms of 
ease of use, battery consumption and mobility. The professional package also 
comes with Ekahau's mobile site survey software for Android that will passively 
check for wireless network issues and report them as you're walking around 
campus.

Overall incredibly happy with the software and support.

We use it and it works well.

They also have a less expensive tool, which includes site survey capabilities, 
called Aircheck (same name as the stand-alone hand-held unit), for both Windows 
or Android. Not as full featured, but may meet basic requirements...I haven't 
used that for a survey yet, but it would be a decent tool for techs or students 
without extensive WiFi skills.

You might want to check out Ehahau too, especially if you want to do any 
planning. The Ekahau survey tool has a planning tool that lets you use CAD 
files, if you have them, and assign RF properties to obstacles on import, which 
you can't do in the Airmagnet planning tool. They require you to draw 
obstacleswhich is just too painful.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] request for info on WiFi Analyzer Pro software

I wanted to query the list to see if anybody was using the AirMagnet WiFi 
Analyzer Pro software and what was their experience with it. We are currently 
looking at it to enhance our troubleshooting tools and was wondering if it was 
worth the expense. Thanks.

We use it and it works well.

They also have a less expensive tool, which includes site survey
capabilities, called Aircheck (same name as the stand-alone hand-held
unit), for both Windows or Android. Not as full featured, but may meet
basic requirements...I haven't used that for a survey yet, but it would be
a decent tool for techs or students without extensive WiFi skills.

You might want to check out Ehahau too, especially if you want to do any
planning. The Ekahau survey tool has a planning tool that lets you use CAD
files, if you have them, and assign RF properties to obstacles on import,
which you can't do in the Airmagnet planning tool. They require you to draw
obstacleswhich is just too painful.
