Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] 5GHz Channel Width

One things to keep in mind is that certain device manufacturers preference wider channels. Apple in the Mac OS X products for instance, will always prefer an 80MHz channel over a 40MHz channel. As well as a 40MHz channel over a 20MHz channel. Things like DBS can lead to stickier clients, as

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] 5GHz Channel Width

I’m really only starting to play in this space over the last year but below is my thoughts. Ideally you want same channels as far away from each other as possible, interference signal levels travels further than acceptable coverage (so you might target 25SNR for signal but I think something

Very much like your site, we’ve utilized attwifi as a third party provider for guests for nearly five years. We have not received DMCA notices, as that is AT’s network, and don’t know how many they may have received. Similarly for CALEA. We would of course assist AT if they required L2

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] support of L2 peering devices?

Thanks! I seem to have it working now, though I should probably test another device. I am not sure what I did. I enabled the DNLA protocols but I am not sure if that was necessary in AirGroup. One of my problems might have been related to not being logged into a gmail account when testing.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] 5GHz Channel Width

Depending on the building construction, and assuming you are using DFS channels, running 40Mhz and even 80Mhz is very likely with no downside. 5GHz does not propagate very well, so a static 20Mhz plan in anything but big open spaces is IMHO unnecessary. If you are a Cisco customer, enabling

Policy based on AirGroup authorizations from ClearPass. If I have a Chromecast/AppleTV/whatever on subnet A, when that device authenticates to the network, the controller will send an AirGroup Authorization Request to ClearPass. ClearPass will return sharing properties of the device

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] support of L2 peering devices?

Tim, “subnet based on policy”? I have a pool of 6 vlans of which devices get randomly assigned to one of the 6 subnets. How does Airgoup know which subnets the two pairing devices are in? I thought it required a broadcast to find each other. I would think that would require a broadcast

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] support of L2 peering devices?

We were told that for a 7240 controller AirGroup was limited to receiving (not necessarily responding to) 200 pps. Given the typical amount of multicast traffic coming from client devices, I would expect 200pps to be reached at a tiny fraction of the 32K devices a 7240 claims to support.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Gathering student and faculty feedback

We’ve done just a little bit of this in the last year with a product called NetBeez. We’ve only got 10 or so of our 35 wi-fi units installed, mostly in the building our offices are in. We have a small list of important campus services that they try and reach over wireless. We were able to

Gathering student and faculty feedback

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] support of L2 peering devices?

We use our guest SSID for devices that rely on bonjour with airgroups enabled. Multicast overall is disabled, airgroups handles any bonjour communication. We use larger /18 nets mainly to facilitate roaming. Airgroups doesn't care what subnet you are on. Devices on our secure SSID can talk to

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Decent tools, on sale

Perhaps SHA256 4K wasn't the best choice right now. The good news is that we're exclusively PAP (never thought I'd say that), so we're pretty much limited to computing devices on our 1x network. To my knowledge we haven't uncovered any compatibility issues other than our AirChecks.

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] support of L2 peering devices?

Jon We do have the AirGroup functionality enabled. But I also have a pool of 6 /23 vlans. So my first question is did you set up an independent SSID for L2 devices to register? Did you use one vlan (subnet)? What size? I am curious about the details to allow broadcast, but I am guessing I

Not necessarily an EAP-TLS issue. I've personally seen some medical devices that puke on larger certs as well. Even using PEAP, they still get the cert from the radius server for building the TLS tunnel. No tunnel, no credential exchange. No creds, no access. In one example, we saw a 3-part

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] support of L2 peering devices?
