I test the performance and it's really bad. What should i do to attack this interference. i am using Cisco product. am i customizing the RRM profile? *Note : i use the AP without clean air feature.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1988432060681510848.post-27999925360732439552013-05-13T14:37:24.156-05:002013-05-13T14:37:24.156-05:00I've seen some of those new "plug and pla...I've seen some of those new "plug and play wireless AP" that use /8 subnet for wireless client.<br />Each AP has its own dhcp server.<br />Do you think this could cause trobles?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1988432060681510848.post-55702497529759716702013-04-03T16:57:58.617-05:002013-04-03T16:57:58.617-05:00Hi Dale,

It's never really an "all-wireless" or "wireless-only" office because some shared devices still need to be wired, as you mentioned. <br /><br />The most common devices that I still see being wired include:<br />- Printers, because enterprise multi-function printers are often in shared areas. And their embedded Wi-Fi capabilities are usually very poor and perform horribly which would cause support issues.<br />- A few ports in conference rooms for portable video carts and other temporary or high-bandwidth uses. Most end-users are still wireless though for meetings.<br />- Executive offices still get wired access (in addition to wireless) because they require a higher level of service than cubicle workers.<br />- VoIP desk phones that are cheaper than wireless VoIP phones. Although many offices are trying to move to soft phones on laptops to get around the cost difference.<br />- Security cameras<br /><br />Yes, a mostly wireless office typically requires a higher density of APs. <br /><br />Cheers,<br />AndrewAndrew von Nagyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12658799453646609565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1988432060681510848.post-54021292125762120462013-04-03T16:51:53.225-05:002013-04-03T16:51:53.225-05:00Hi Jason,

I haven't personally seen anything larger, and I would hesitate to do so personally. <br /><br />Cheers,<br />AndrewAndrew von Nagyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12658799453646609565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1988432060681510848.post-10360582957255440532013-04-03T13:43:11.841-05:002013-04-03T13:43:11.841-05:00You mention that the sizing of the broadcast domai...You mention that the sizing of the broadcast domain is a consideration for designing high capacity networks. I've seen some very large events use multiple /20s for their subnet sizes, but I'm curious if you've seen any larger subnets used and if there was any negative impact?<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Jason Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1988432060681510848.post-51569757860264332732013-04-02T21:11:18.673-05:002013-04-02T21:11:18.673-05:00Have you run across a wireless-only office - all e...Have you run across a wireless-only office - all end user devices using WLAN as primary connectivity instead of Ethernet? What devices would you recommend stay wired (network printers, VOIP phones)? Would this not also require high density of APs?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17248030664273894377noreply@blogger.com
