We kept the captive portal, but we also create “special” guest accounts for longer term needs. For example, we recently held a weekend volleyball tournament and the athletic department had a guest account for visiting coaches that was valid for the duration of the tournament. The guest network

Prior to this year, we had open guest SSID with a captive portal where users had to accept an AUP every 8 hours. This year we removed the captive portal and merged it with another SSID that was used for consoles and other devices that do not support 802.1x. The new guest SSID is open and

We use PacketFence as well; while faculty, staff, and student accounts are tied to AD, guest accounts reside only in packetfence. What is nice for us is accounts can have limited time frames and limited expirations to help prevent abuse. Thomas Carter Network & Operations Manager Austin

We are doing the same as Tim using ISE except we give the user five days of access. We also have a sponsor portal that some of our trusted LAN Managers can access to give certain guest users access for up to 45 days. This covers large camps and conferences. We treat all wireless as outside

We use Bluecat DRP, and our guests can register via the web on an open ssid and get access for a limited time. Tests were conducted to allow students to use it as well (with ldap) but we ran into issues that made it so we rolled out only the “guest” part. It works fairly well. Manon Lessard

We wanted to eliminate the administrative hassle of guests so we followed a model which I think many instructions are following to some degree. We created a self-registration portal that is on an open SSID. They register and are sent an sms and email message which contains a password code to

I've got about 300 WAP's (Enterasys/Extreme Networks) in dorms with lights on for the last 2 years and haven't had any requests to turn them off here. These WAP's are wall or ceiling mounted and generally away from beds though and the LED's are pin-prick in size. They don't seem to emit a lot
