We're able to allot bandwidth per role within the same ESSID on the Aruba System. So, yes we segment by VLAN but not by ESSID.

One area that I was looking for a comment on (and no one did which is an answer in it's self). I was wondering if anyone segregates users types in the RF. eg....keep students in the 2.4 and admin in 5.0 or with channel overlays (with virtual cell or multiple APs with micro-cell) with a particular channel for admin only and students on another....things like that. I assume by the lack of commentary on this type of thing, that we're not concerned about one group impacting the other when using multiple SSIDs on the same radio. Presumably, 11n speeds make this a non issue? .......thx.....................J James Savage York University Senior Communications Tech. 108 Steacie Building [email protected] 4700 Keele Street ph: 416-736-2100 ext. 22605 Toronto, Ontario fax: 416-736-5830 M3J 1P3, CANADA ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/. ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.
