Hector,
How much disk space are you using for the 30 days of log? Just curious.
Lee, we are doing PAT at our border with 4 public IPs. I think during
peak usage we might have 2000 simultaneous connections, but the usual is
probably closer to 1500

We use private IPs, we PAT at the border and we log all transactions on
a Juniper firewall so that we can keep a log of the private-to-public
translations. We keep 30 days of logs right now. We are buying more disk
space to save up to 90 days.
It's been very effective. As a side note, we would not be able to
maintain our wireless if we did not have a private IP space. Just this
semester we had to increase the IP subnet for our library. On finals
week we saw over 800 users!!
Thanks,

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Private IP space for wireless users- anyone?
Wondering how many other schools are using private IP space for
wireless users, how you accomplish the NAT, and what mechanisms you use
for user tracking for the private-public mappings for
forensic/investigatory purposes.
Thanks-
Lee
