just over 2 years ago I managed to persuade SLT to drop student wifi (BYOD) access for the following reasons.

 

  • Cyber Security issues/concerns
  • Web Filtering - either blocked due not installing SSL Cert or the use of VPN to bypass it.

 

Now, there could be rumblings of the 6th Form team asking for it to be reinstated.

 

How many other schools with 6th Form allow Student BYOD

 

What Firewall/Filtering to you have and what APs?

 

Did have Smoothwall and Unfi NanoHD Aps and now have a Fortigate with Unifi U7 APs.

 

Any info welcome.

 

Cheers

We have it, it's actually necessary due to the way we issue them laptops that aren't on our domain. Uses RADIUS with their normal logon, but it does not pop out on our range and it's on a separate VLAN I think. Filtering managed further up the chain by the firewall (LEA managed). Cisco APs (AX).
