i did something i thought was pretty cool today.

plugged a wireless access point into my 2950 switch gave it an ip and can now telnet from the windows command prompt to it and the rest of the lab without the need of a console cable, no really need to do it but i can sit in a different room now so i don't have to listen to the noise they all make :P

    Man, the Cisco wireless stuff is so cool. We have 300 access points, centrally managed by 4 controllers, with a location server to show coverage areas and even client locations on campus maps, and WCS to provide overall control of the whole thing. It's really nice to have the controllers deal with everything instead of having to manually configure APs. Just install them in the field and put them in the right subnet.

    I hope you have that thing locked down.
    There is no place like 127.0.0.1 BUT 209.62.5.3 is my 127.0.0.1 away from 127.0.0.1!

    If you have them working autonomously, they do. If you have them controlled by the cisco controllers and control system, you can pretty much only view configurations at the console. You can't configure anyhthing.
