Network weirdness in Congress 3

[agmalis@…]

I'm in Congress 3 on a Macbook Retina (OS X 10.10.4). I was on SSID "ietf",
but then received a dialog box that "network ietf has been compromised". I
tried to switch to ietf-a.1x but was unable to connect. I am currently up
on ietf.1x, on what looks to be a highly utilized channel 6.

Cheers,
Andy

Andy,

This is actually two problems, one a old bad configuration that somehow leaked into the field, and a more general one. The bad configuration was on ap-4060 in that room, and I've found and reset it. Thanks for the help! As for the compromise, it is a general problem that affected lots of folks at that time, and we're researching the root cause.

Thanks for the report!

Jim,

Glad to help. I'm now in the IETF lounge and still seeing the "compromise"
issue on "ietf". "ietf-2.4ONLY" seems to be stable.

Cheers,
Andy

TKIP has been disabled throughout the IETF network. All encryption now uses AES, and the draconian measures that the WPA/TKIP standard require are no longer an issue.

I am closing this ticket. However, if you see this problem again please re-open this ticket.

And, of course, feel free to open another ticket if you have any network issues with the IETF network.

Thanks!
Chris.
