Completed ~ Jan 2015. Current wireless in Physics's Admin conference room is homebrew. Since access is not controlled, and on the Physics Admin network, this is "not good" from a security (and CU policy) perspective. Ideally, should be serviced by RedRover. |
Options considered 6/10/14
...
Option | Costs and related issues | Notes |
---|---|---|
Ideal option 1: Upgraded nearby RedRover AP meets room's needs | $1,356 for 2 new APs ($678, 5/5/14) | No new wiring or conduit: Simply take down and put up new ones. And program the 2 APs appropriately. |
Ideal option 2:Add RedRover AP to room. | $678 1 new AP (price as of 5/5/14) | Soft install acceptable? Require "soft" wiring (no conduit). And programming of the AP. |
Option 3: Switch underlying network to current AP to Access Net. | $70, if single work order. Switch network AP's jack is on. | Test that Access Net's DCHP and MAC registration (same as RedRover's DB?) passes through. |
