SWGFL Termination fee £1k per site!
TheScarfedOne replied to lmgtfy's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
This seems very odd to me. Can you drop me a PM, I have some contacts in swgfl. As the contracts have to be renewed each year, it figures some won't and then service is terminated. You have given notice of non renewal, so I don't see the problem -
Echoing others here really...it can take a bit of getting your head around it but its worth it. Its much more set and leave since there are now auto approval, which you had to use wsus for.

TheScarfedOne replied to pooley's topic in Cloud Services
Not an Office 365 user - but @EduTech @apearce are good sources of info. May also be worth a support call if having issues -

How to remove an application on multiple computers?
TheScarfedOne replied to ITman93's topic in Windows Server 2000/2003
That's good news then. You will need to make a cmd script file which runs this with the /s parameters, which is the control for silent. "C:\Program Files\Spark\uninstall.exe" /s should do the trick. On a machine without the software, this will error out. You could tidy this up with an ifexist...but that might be overkill here. -

How to remove an application on multiple computers?
TheScarfedOne replied to ITman93's topic in Windows Server 2000/2003
Can you have a look on the machine in its program files folder and see if it has its own inbuilt uninstall, if not, will try and find its guid code for an msiexec uninstall for you -
Eying up meraki here too for when I have those shiny devices . I think there is a centrify client too, and trying to remember the great find that was found at BETT?

TheScarfedOne replied to ITman93's topic in Windows Server 2000/2003
Only really works well if you deployed it that way and have the install / uninstall programs created. Best way is to try to script the silent running of the uninstall program from the local machine's program files folder (a nice if exists then script would work well), else it could be done with the msiexec program guid - but this is a bit more tricky -
Blooming heck @vikpaw you really went to town on that reply . Efficiency

As with everything - it depends how you want to use it. If you want a high density, with high numbers of concurrent devices, with high throughput - then aggregating connections back to your cabled network by having a high number of aps with their broadcase strength turned down is actually quite a good and scalable solution. This is not far off what Im doing. There are lots of satisfied Ruckus customers on here, as well as many other vendors. Lets not turn this thread into a manufacturer vs manufacturer thread. If you want a good comparison between performance of vendor products, there was a study done by a member and there is a Toms Hardware Guide report somewhere too. The best thing to do would be to get trial kit on site though to test which works best in your environment

How about asking their support to install the tools for you, thus not compromising their "secrets"; and you get what you want?
