Sounds like a great use case for ip mobility... what are you running for 
wireless controllers?

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] wireless DHCP lease time

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!!
