Curious how you define "limiting access to those known to us". Can I walk down the street and decide I want to walk through campus and then sit down outside a building and use the wireless? If so, is that not considered public?

Our legal folks feel that by limiting access to those known to us (including visitors), we are not a public network and can claim an exemption from CALEA compliance. You'll have to talk this over with your own legal folks; they're going to be the ones representing you, they need to be in on the discussion. -- Regards, -- Cal Frye, Network Administrator, Oberlin College www.calfrye.com, www.pitalabs.com "Do I contradict myself?
