RE: Printing to a wired printer from wireless

We used PaperCut MF in my previous workplace as well and we were satisfied with it. When we first implemented (summer 2016), we also used Presto to handle the DNS. I'm a bit fuzzy on the details at this point but that was flakey (biggest issue being print jobs not getting cleared from the

WLC interface groups?

This question is for large universities with WLCs that tunnel traffic through a controller. Do you use a single interface (VLAN) for, say, 30k clients, or do you use two or more interfaces in an interface group, and why? Do you use DHCP proxy? Is there any documentation or generally-accepted

RE: Deploying Cisco 9120's with existing APs

I’ve been told by two individuals from different VARs that it is not a good idea to mix generations of APs within an area due to RRM, but it’s OK to mix a 2700/3700 or 2800/3800/1815. From the 9120 deployment guide: Mixing access points of different models and types The Catalyst 9120 is a

RE: Theater wifi - to have or not to have

I agree with the all-or-nothing stance. Better to have nothing than to have mediocrity, which frustrates users as mentioned. If nothing, at least have a design and wiring ready. Then buy APs and switches/blades when ready to commit. We’re just beginning to talk about upgrading wireless in the

RE: Are You Ready for WiFi6E

I asked Cisco about what 6 GHz means for their APs and their response is: "6Hz will require new hardware for both APs and clients. We expect major chip makers to have their products ready by the end of 2020. By early 2021 we expect to see a few 6Hz capable consumer access points and high-end

Fast transition roaming

Hi everyone, We are reviewing our WLAN-level settings and are curious about what others institutions are doing for fast transition. 1. Do you use 802.11r? 2. How about .11k? 3. If you do, did you notice improvements in device roaming, whether they are stationary or moving?

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco WLC 9800 Gotchas

Hi Jesse, Good to know about activating LAN ports on the 9105s, thanks. We’ll be facing that issue soon when we start testing them. I do see a way to enable and specify VLANs for LAN ports in Prime. Your mileage may vary; this doesn’t seem to work with an 1815W, probably only did on 702W, but

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] 8540 Code version- holiday work

Avoid 8.5.161.0 if you have 2800/3800s. 8.5.161.6 has been working better for us, though our campus population is sparse with COVID and the particular issues we were having were in higher traffic areas. Eric Glinsky Network Administrator University of Connecticut ITS – Network Operations

RE: A quick roundup of clients per standard in universities

Hi Manon, I wanted to point out that the numbers I provide don't reflect on client capability, just what protocol they actually connect with. For example, inevitably we have some AX-capable clients on campus, but we don't have any AX APs deployed, so I had to put in 0 for AX clients. We do

We broadcast the usual 3 SSIDs (branded, guest, eduroam) in the few locations we have outdoor WiFi for general use. We’ve also started setting up outdoor APs for athletic venues for ticket scanners. In one area, we added the ticket scanning SSID to the others. In other, predictably more crowded
