@cmr Yes, 2.4 interference is a concern, but not to the point where I'm not willing to try turning it off and seeing what happens. Can't get any worse than what it has been this week lol.  @UCcert I'm not sure about limiting caching server connected devices, BUT, I will definitely research this and send that over to our MDM person.  ...

Traffic Shaping Advice

Hi there,   Here's a little background for context:  I work in K-12 where I have a high school with around 3000 students and about 175 staff. We are a 1 to 1 district where students get Macbook Airs and staff gets Pros (and several shared laptops, desktops, ipads, etc). MacOS & VPP updates (Office/native apps/any volume license app) are getting larger and larger. We can control when MacOS system updates are pushed, but not VPP. Two days ago an update came out that was almost 4gb. So naturally, 3000+ devices tried to download once next connected to the internet, which is Monday morning on campus. We have been having major (timeouts, etc) slowness issues since then. Do we send notifications for students/staff to leave devices on and online at home?--yes. Do they do that? ---no.    I see in the dashboard that majority of traffic has been coming from our caching servers (we have them on prem so egress isn't tapped out). The past 24 hrs, 2TB+. So, it's our internal network that's being tapped out (I believe on the AP level). I think creating a Traffic Shaping rule that lowers the priority of traffic from these caching servers would be the way to go. What do you think?     Network Setup: MR42 (avg 30-45 devices connected per AP/classroom)--> MS250--> MS425 --> Egress router   ... View more

Portnox

Hi there,   I'm looking into various NACs to purchase. The default ISE & Clearpass seems way too expensive to purchase and maintain on top of Meraki Licensing. I stumbled across Portnox (never heard of it before). Is anyone else using it with their Meraki environment?  ... View more

Splash Page Welcome Message - Cant add email or websites

by dwash in Wireless LAN
‎07-28-2021 11:34 AM
‎07-28-2021 11:34 AM
Hi there,   In the Welcome Message of the Splash page, I can't put any email address or website. It will just blank it out. I tried using HTML code converter and just regular text, to no avail. A workaround has been to add emailaddress@domain . org or Website . com    Am I doing something wrong maybe?      Update--looks like it adds it there, but defaults the text color to white (same color as default background). Changing color motif, does not work.      Final update--- Its an IPADOS/IOS thing, it whites out such links. lovely. ... View more

Separate Networks in one bldg

by dwash in Wireless LAN
‎05-24-2021 05:45 AM
‎05-24-2021 05:45 AM
Hi there,   I've come across a situation where a portion of a bldg (and network) will be used by a separate sub-entity. There will be no network changes (same internet egress, same dhcp setup, etc) other than not wanting entity B's local tech having access to adjust wireless to entity A's.    If I setup a separate network, would the Air Marshall --> Block Rogue SSIDs need to be turned off on each network? ...
