[sdnog] one suggestion for a BCOP.

[Samir S. Omer]

Greetings, 

I think it's also important to discuss APs "throughput" or the number of end-user it can simultaneously serve. I believe most administrators set up their APs and assume it will serve 
as much users as it need with the only impact being is the bandwidth will drop due to sharing. 

Regards, 
Samir

Hi SdNOG Members 

I am glad to see some activities in this mailing list. 

regarding the topic, below is a snapshot of the traffic utilization during the event: 


The conference room had been connected with 2 APs, 4Mbps per each. 
Each AP has 2 SSIDs, SSID can support 64 users. 
different channel to different APs. 
Note: 2Mbps reserved for Speakers. 

future plan: adding another ISP for reliability, and Monitoring IPv6 traffic. 

If there is any idea please share it with us. 

thanks,

Hello Nishal 
AP per room is definitely something :). Can anyone from SdNOG technical team shares details about the conference Wifi setup? 
Also, since we are talking about open source and monitoring; any suggestions for software to monitor associations and traffic utilization?

one suggestion that came up for a BCOP talk, a few months ago, was how to setup wifi in a hotel, for regular hotel use. 

to add some perspective to this, two weeks ago, there was a conference in mauritius; the hotel has 108 individual guest rooms, and each of the 108 rooms had its own wireless AP (each of which was on channel #6). the conference hotel for sdNOG1 has something similar; an SSID per guest-room. 
there's clearly a need for this sort of documentation :-) 

if you're interested in getting involved in writing this out, ping myself or jan (or let's discuss this on the mailing list)
