Agenda 4  Rates  Wireless  Planning discussion

Rates 5  Ports  Effective March 1, 2009, all 10meg and 100meg port rates will be reduced to $5.25 for FY ‘10 Rate maybe further reduced to $5.00 in FY10  Central Service Fee  We originally requested $5,198,999 for FY ‘10, the revised request is $5,090,212, up less than $15k from FY ‘09  2-Factor pilot ($200k)  Funded through N&T cost savings through contract renegotiations  Wireless  FY 10 rates are $34.58/month rather than previously projected $38 AP support - $28.03/Port - $5.25/vLAN - $1.25  MAGPI/Internet2  Bandwidth increased to 200 meg from 105 with only a $4k increase

Wireless Update 6  Evaluated next generation wireless, controller-based architecture with “802.11N” capabilities  Piloting in ISC, SAS and CHC  Currently testing new features such as failover, increased bandwidth with n, and coverage areas  If successful,100% roll-out in ResNet in Summer of 2009  Rest of campus will be upgraded by end of FY 2010  New wireless will offer a/b/g  n to be included over time.  Good trade in costs and strong negotiations helped to keep under our projected monthly support costs for FY10

Wireless Update 7  Future Plans  Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2) conversion Offers better encryption of data Protects against DOS attacks Required for n Would require client reconfiguration Would pilot this in order to make a seamless as possible  Explore VoIP and/or Video over wireless  Continue to monitor other wireless technologies (WiMax, Fixed Mobile Convergence)
