A: -Do you have an existing hyper-visor environment (Vmware/Hyper-V) capable of hosting a virtual controller? We currently have 3 VMWare 5.5 hosts. There is room to host a virtual controller if necessary but a quote for optional hardware would be fine.
-Any specific configuration requirements? BYOD, Guest, Private, etc? BYOD enforcement, MAC address management and Guest Wireless security are a priority. Configuration capability is needed, no specific settings at this point.
-Is there one building or multiple? Any requirement to provide WiFi outside the building? Multiple buildings, wifi outside not necessary but full coverage of classrooms needed. Note the link to the floor plan at: www.mye-binder.com/rfpqa_files/7YEMXE.pdf.
-What is the ceiling material? Is there a plenum? Standard drop tile ceiling.
-Will this project replace all existing WLAN infrastructure? No, since we will be leaving cabling to switches in place.
-What make/model (to determine port speed/configuration) of switches will be powering the access points? Cisco 3560.
-Is the existing cabling infrastructure at least CAT5e? It may just be cat5. The cabling is at least 6 years old and most current switches are 10/100, not 1000bps on Ethernet ports.
-Also what is the deadline for quote submission? 4/8/2016 – note the ITB for response instructions.
Q: Like to know the specific Cisco switch model that is to be swapped out.
