Wireless LAN Design Guide for High Density Client Environments in Higher Education
Introduction
Cisco’s Uni ed Wireless Network • Plan: Determine application and device requirements such as bandwidth, protocols, frequencies, service level agreement (SLA), etc. • Design: Determine density, cell sizing, antennas, coverage, site survey, etc. • Implement: Install, test, tune, establish baseline, etc. • Optimize: Monitor, report, adjust, review baseline for SLA • Operate: Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS) monitoring, troubleshooting tools, capacity monitoring and reporting tools, etc. The general concepts underlying high density Wi-Fi design remain true for many environments. But it is
