University Switches to 802.1X
University Switches to 802.1X
04/09/2004 03:57 PMUniversity of Tennessee switches to 802.1X, but leaves
gateway-controlled segment for older systems: The university first
tried a proprietary method of authentication in 2002 that left behind
users of the latest operating systems (XP and OS X). The latest
incarnation uses 802.1X, which is well supported in Windows XP
(Service Pack 1 with wireless rollout for best results) and Mac OS X
10.3 (PEAP, EAP-TTLS, EAP-TLS, and other flavors). Because the
university opted for TTLS (the reasoning isn't explained), it's not
noted but they would have had to install a third-party client on
Windows systems. However, TTLS is supported by Funk and Meetinghouse
for a wide variety of Windows platforms as well as Solaris and certain
Linux flavors. The non-802.1X segment requires a gateway login and is
locked by MAC. The staff use tools to monitor MAC addresses to ensure
that legitimate authenticated sessions aren't being hijacked. It's
clearly a transition stage for them, too, as they can't have a
complete .1X switchover, but they'll gradually have less reason to run
a gatewayed system. Their current system doesn't offer
session-to-session authentication, but requires re-entering
credentials each time a laptop is awoken from sleep. But given the
state of .1X clients, this should still be simpler (clicking a button
in most cases) than a repeated gateway login....

David Pescovitz:
One of the Florida State University professors protesting against a
proposed chiropractic school at the college created this spoof campus
map. Apparently, seven professors have threatened to quit if the
chiropractic school happens.
From the St. Petersburg Times:
The threatened resignations...reflect a belief among many
in the medical establishment that chiropractic is a "pseudo-science
" that leads to unnecessary and sometimes harmful treatments...
The list of critics include FSU's two Nobel laureates - Robert
Schreiffer, a physicist, and Harold Walter Kroto, a chemist - and
Robert Holton, the chemistry professor who developed the
cancer-fighting drug Taxol, which has brought FSU tens of millions of
dollars in royalties. In recent weeks, more than 500 faculty members
have signed petitions against the chiropractic school, including about
70 in the medical college, said Dr. Raymond Bellamy, an assistant
professor who is leading the charge against the proposal.

Can A University Ban WiFi Networks?
Can A University Ban WiFi Networks?
09/09/2004 11:16 AMSlashdot is running a story about The University of Texas at Dallas
banning
independent WiFi networks to avoid interference with the
university-run WiFi network. There's just one (big) problem. The FCC
has made it clear that
only they
have the right to regulate unlicensed spectrum. That was the
point of the ruling they made just a few months ago telling airports
they can't stop anyone from setting up WiFi networks within the
airport. At the same time, though, this does demonstrate some of the
issues with unlicensed spectrum. As great as it's been for generating
massive growth for things like WiFi, interference is still a problem
-- and one that not enough people have paid attention to.

04/28/2004 11:40 AMTo tackle poor Wi-Fi certification first-pass rate, University of New
Hampshire's InterOperability Lab (UNH-IOL) offers approved
pre-certification: This might sound obscure, but it's a way for
companies to save potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars and
weeks of work off the budget for developing Wi-Fi products. The Wi-Fi
Alliance has said that 25 percent of the products reaching their labs
don't pass Wi-Fi certification tests the first go-round. The UNH-IOL
will provide an intermediate testing program that will allow
mid-stream course correction with ostensibly less cost. Lab users must
pay fees unless they support the lab directly, and must be Wi-Fi
Alliance members....

More on University of Texas Wi-Fi Policy
09/10/2004 01:01 PMAn association of university telecom administrators has already asked
the FCC to clarify whether universities can ban Wi-Fi networks: The
University of Texas recently banned students from setting up their own
Wi-Fi networks, stating that the independent networks were interfering
with a free university-maintained network. The FCC told the
Association of College and University Telecommunications
Administrators that schools can prohibit students living in campus
housing from building wireless networks. But, if the school leases
residential property where students live, they can't restrict the use
of wireless networks. The right of the University of Texas to forbid
students from using their own wireless networks will depend on who
owns the building the students live in....

University of Texas Removes Wi-Fi Ban
University of Texas Removes Wi-Fi Ban
09/16/2004 11:29 AMThe University of Texas at Dallas, which recently set a rule
forbidding students from building their own Wi-Fi networks, rescinded
the policy: The action of forbidding the networks created quite a buzz
online. University officials referred to an FCC notice posted in June
that makes it clear that the FCC is the only body that has
jurisdiction over the airwaves. While universities have some control
over what students do in student housing, in this case, the student
building is not owned by the university. That means the university has
less rights to control what students do there. [link via Frank]...
