I would like to be able to take this approach, but the current distribution
of several age of AP in each building is going to make it tricky. The way I
see see it, given our starting point, the best plan is as follows:
1. Replace the existing 1131s (Annoying due to the different mounting).
2.
Another approach to consider is:
Replace all the AP's in a single building with something new.
Ditch the 1131's that came out of the building above, but redistribute any
newer AP's to another building (with the same type), cycling out any 1131s
there.

the wired and wireless infrastructure on campus. The initial refresh
