Our campus AUP is based on two principles: Don't Break the Law, and Don't Use Resources in a Way that Interferes with Their Use By Others. Saturating the network (most often using peer-to-peer sharing; it used to be, most commonly, saturating the campus gateway to the Internet...) clearly violates the latter -- and is much easier to demonstrate than getting into trying to police content and/or verify copyright status. It's potentially a more acute issue on wireless than on switched wired networks, but we have not yet seen any need to customize our policy for any particular technology. David Gillett, CISSP
_____ From: Aaron Hockett [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, April 02, 2012 09:34 To: [email protected] Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Policies for blocking or throttling wireless users All ~ I was curious what other colleges had in place for people that are saturating your wireless network with both download and upload traffic in terms of a procedure or policy. What that would include would also be the expectation that is set forth for your wireless network, availability, usage etc. Right now we are flying somewhat blind with an older Meraki Pro system which cannot do any sort of dynamic Layer 7+ shaping or limiting like the enterprise units can so I'm looking for input from others on how you handle your wireless users.
