Currently on our Aruba installation we have created VLAN pools for different portions of the network(Student, Academic, etc), these pools primarily consist of /23 networks.

We are in the process of moving from a controllerless vendor to Aruba. Our current design is very segmented, to keep wireless device broadcasts from overwhelming the network and AP's (we had this problem back in 11g days). Presently, we've limited segments to /23's (give or take). In your controller-based environments, how large have you let these segments go? Is a /21, /20 ... viable? -Brian ____________________________________ Brian Helman, M.Ed | Director, ITS/Networking Services | *: 978.542.7272 Salem State University, 352 Lafayette St., Salem Massachusetts 01970 GPS: 42.502129, -70.894779 ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/. ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.
