We're running into some issues at the ramp up of a quarter with our
DHCP lease time attempting to utilize the /24's we currently pool for
our main essid. We moved from 1hr. to 30 minutes, but are still
running out of leases occasionally. For instance, we have 160 users in
a /24, but due to the transient nature of wireless/classes leases that
are used for a brief moment the cycle isn't quite efficient enough.
What is everyone else using for wireless DHCP lease times? I know I
can just add another /24 to the pool, but the networks are not being
utilized enough. We want to try 15 minutes but are wondering if we
will start to run into issues related with that? Your input is greatly
appreciated!!
