Re: Captive portal trouble with LG phones

[Curtis K. Larsen]

We use PacketFence on our captive portal and I have not seen this issue or any 
reports of it.  Let me know if you have more detail on this - I'll keep an eye 
out for it.

Thanks,

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Captive portal trouble with LG phones

We use PacketFence as our NAC and have a captive portal to allow users to 
self-register their devices. In the past couple of weeks we’ve had problems 
with the latest LG phones (other Androids work fine) disconnecting in the 
middle of a captive portal session; it won’t stay connected long enough to 
register the device. It seems similar to the old Apple “success.html” test for 
internet connectivity, but I haven’t been able to determine if that is the 
case. Has anyone else seen this issue with new LG phones?

RE: Anyone else jumping on Aruba 8.0 code?

[Osborne, Bruce W (Network Operations)]

True, but the controllers must all be running 8.0 or greater versions.

I just wondered if anybody has tested that yet.

We are going through a redesign of our wireless infrastructure so our current 
testing of 8.0 is limited.

I think in 8.0 Master controllers are replaced with the Mobility Master.  You 
would be managing multiple local controllers with different versions.

We have installed a VM and will be evaluating it as time permits.

Unless there are some major “must-have” features though, we will not likely 
deploy in full Production until after the second GA release.

I am interested in your experiences, though. One new feature is the ability to 
manage multiple master controllers, even if they run differing versions of 
ArubaOS (8.0+). Have you tried that feature yet?

We currently have 3 non-testing master controllers – Production, Remote (RAP) & 
LPV. It would be great to centralize management of them.

Hey all,



For those of you who haven't been following the early code releases from Aruba, 
AOS 8 is a major upgrade, to the point where there's no actual upgrade path 
from AOS 6.x.  It's got some pretty slick features, though, for those brave 
enough to jump in and blow a test environment.  We're dipping our toes in here, 
working very closely with Aruba support.  We've had some wrinkles to work out, 
as expected in any x.0.0 release, though so far the resources we've been given 
have been right on top of them.



So my question is, has anyone else tried out the 8.0 code on any decently sized 
production scale, and if so, how's it worked out?



(Alternatively, for those who haven't tried it at all, I'd be happy to answer 
any questions I can from my limited deployment so far.)



thanks everyone!
