Answer:
1.)Faster time for students to access information from data that are used repeatedly. 2.) Testing super important. Youtube could be a great plus for the teachers. HTTPS important. 3.) We are 500-+ with the plans of bringing in another 500+ Line. 4.) Not sure on the peak that is managed by the state . Through my wireless my AP's run about 5GB of Usage. 5.) Teachers are using laptops and students are using Chromebooks, Labs are mixture of Chromeboxes and Desktops. 6.) Yes I allow guest network access for school use. We have about 475 devices for High school and about 475 for Elem. We do plan on adding more devices. Hopefully another 250 devices on each campus. 7.) Google, Youtube, Virtual Arkansas, Standardized Testing, Mindy Play and l lot more I will have to find from teachers.

Answer:
1.) Online Testing and Virtual Arkansas- Black Board, Power Panel, Moodle 1 & 2.
2.)We have certificates pushed out for the filter. We don't do push certificates out often. Experience is low. We just used group policy or SCCM server to push out things we need on the network. We haven't started true HTTPS filtering/Inspection yet.
3.)Yes, when second connection is added it will be two separate lines. Both lines will be in use and come together at the core switch or Ecessa.
Answer:
The internet comes into the district to an cisco router provided by the state/Satco. We are giving a hand off that comes to the state provided equipment Cisco3650 and then filter through opendns, traffic is then pushed out through the core switch Aruba Chassis 5400R. This unit is at all of the main campus. We don't have a diagram set up yet for the additional line, because it is a future project. We we bring in the second line we have been looking at Ecessa and firewall filter unit.
