Agenda • Proposed plan for FY 15 • Budget request for FY 15 • Additional funding request

Proposed plan for FY 15 • Change SSID names and simplify – “csu-eid”: student/staff/faculty – “csu-guest”: guests – no username/password required, limited bandwidth and confined mostly to just web browsing. – “eduroam”: accessible internationally! • Upgrade GA classrooms to 802. 11 ac (see following slide for plan) • Cover remaining parts of GA buildings at 5 GHz • Continue to fund 1 FTE from UTFAB • $385 K of central funding for Wi. Fi expansion, plus maintenance and an FTE • Educational campaign and signage

Also for FY 15 • Develop a database of installations • Assess deployments versus funding levels to determine a refresh rate • Intent: make good progress on this in FY 15, may spill over into FY 16
