Make that +2.  I am halfway through an install for about 800 users =
spread through a multi-story building with around 100 R700 access points =
and ZD 3000.  Once you understand the basics, it is trivial to set up, =
easy to manage, performance is superb.

Using RADIUS auth you can assign different groups of users to different =
VLANs (all on a single SSID), just different username/password to =
connect.

Signal penetration is the best that I have ever seen, and makes the =
Cisco Aironet enterprise stuff look really really silly.
