We are testing Video Furnace.  I found out today that multicast will not work 
over LWAPP - controller based APs.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Streaming multicast over wireless



I am working on testing streaming multicast video over wireless and
wanted to find what others have found in their testing/deployment.

I know Dartmouth is doing this on their campus. Using 802.11a radios
for this purpose.

<http://new.arubanetworks.com/solutions/case-studies/dartmouth.php>


We actually have the same Video Furnace  IP TV system as Dartmouth
and we currently provide over 20 channels to our dormitories. Each
channel is currently a 2 Mbps stream.

I am starting to test the system over the wireless network.  I wanted
to see if other schools had done similar testing yet.

The first question I am trying to answer is how many users per AP?
The second is will this work with 802.11g (not allowing  802.11b
speeds).  As most of our users still have 802.11b/g radios?
The third is what is the implications of adding wireless VOIP sometime soon?

Our current infrastructure is Cisco 1200's using a WLSM/WLSE
solution.  I hope to start migrating to a controller based system
next summer/fall.
