Does any one use prime for wireless management, and if so do you have any good resources for examples?

    I used a trial version of the latest incarnation. Once I hooked it up to the wireless controller, it found everything pretty quickly. Throwing in the office layouts maps took a few minutes.

    I have it for wired but looking to deply wireless with it over few big buildings, before always used controller based tool for configuration. Intergrating in to prime will be some wism2's and fe other stand along controllers as well as about 300 ap's. the maps I think will be fun :)

    Also forescout NAC vs cisco ISE? If any one has experince of these I would be keen to hear.

    We have just had Prime installed. Going from WLC to WCS and then to Prime I find it very frustrating to use as everything is configured from templates which we don't have as we started out with just a WLC, so a simple task becomes hugely time consuming. The maps are fairly useful.


    If you're going to use NAC for wireless, you should look at ISE. Has many useful features for BYOD. I however don't have any hands on experience with it.

    Cisco has created Quick Start VoD Series for Prime Infrastructure.
    Go to Cisco - YouTube and then select TECHNOLOGY > CISCO PRIME

    Regarding ForeScout vs. Cisco for NAC, it depends on your organization's infrastructure. Is your organization purely Cisco based or not, how diverse is your organization's infrastructure in terms of network devices, there are so many things to look for....
    My best advice is evaluate both of them as proof of concept. That way you can see how it will function in your organization.
