Let's give a real world example: You have a Student who is type 1 Diabetic with a pump and a DexCom Monitor. One of his teachers took his phone away as I was texting him in violation of the written, approved, authorized 504 plan for our Son.

My Son had a medical right to have his phone on him at all times at school. Make sure you get this edict in writing so as not to take the blame when something happens. Make sure there are no medical exceptions before cutting off every Student. Opening the school district up for major lawsuits as well as putting Student's Health at risk. This could be in direct violation of 504 Plan. Some of your students may need wifi access for medical reasons. You could be violating Local, State, and Federal laws. We cant use Time restrictions to access the network as AD users (insluding Students) need to connect to WIfi during weekend/afterhours events.īe very very careful with this edict.

We also thought of adding Cert but kids can easily install then as we have seend that happen too few times. School provide 1:1 Macbooks to year 10-12 students which are enrolled automatically in Meraki as a part of our High Sierra Image (DeployStudio).ĭetails of every BYOD IPADS(year 8-9) and School provided MaCbooks(year10-12) are in Meraki, We thought of exporting the to CSV and used them to create a MAC whitelist but next year when new students with BYOD come in then they cant use their AD credetials to connet to WIFI and use Meraki for App Deployment unless we add them manually to the whitelist. We cant use MAC white-list as we allow new students to connect to wifi (using AD Credentials) so that Meraki can deploy Apps to BYOD ipads for year 8 and 9.

The issue we face is that some students are able to change their device name and even MAC so we have to crosscheck them with Meraki all the time. We hare already blacklisted 400+ MAC address (in DHCP) of the devices with name containing Phone/Iphone/Andriop.Samsung/Sony.etc etc. Our Schools has 1600 Students and DHCP range is 2100 IPs. Thanks for your time and valuable inputs.
