I've seen two unique logins with that MAC in the past month. -- Daniel Eklund Director, Networking Wayne State University 313-577-5558
Justin, Thank you for pointing out that most management systems (AirWave, etc) use the MAC address as a unique identifier - it is supposed to be a unique hardware address. I’ve seen indication of that MAC on our Airwave Management Platform at Emory and can deduce we had 3-4 unique visitors, mostly on our guest network, but no successful authentications on our WPA-Enterprise network. The first sighting was on 07/23/2010, there was a sighting on 09/01/2010, and the last time I saw that MAC (possibly two separate users) was on 09/16/2010. I do have two different email addresses for the last two sightings, but will probably not pursue this further unless we have more sightings. This doesn’t seem like a big issue here, but it is troubling if a manufacturer is putting out product with duplicate unique hardware identifiers (MAC addresses). >>-> Stan Brooks - CWNA/CWSP Emory University University Technology Services 404.727.0226 AIM/Y!/Twitter: WLANstan MSN: wlans...@hotmail.com GoogleTalk: wlans...@gmail.com ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.
