 A metal firewall is a significant RF obstacle that can be difficult to see visually and might require access to blueprints. A metal firewall is a type of fire-resistant barrier that is made of metal or metal-clad materials and is used to separate different sections of a building or a network. A metal firewall can block or attenuate RF signals that pass through it, causing coverage gaps, signal degradation, or interference in the wireless deployment. A metal firewall can also reflect RF signals, creating multipath fading or distortion in the wireless environment. Therefore, an architect needs to identify the location and thickness of any metal firewalls in the building and account for their impact on the RF design. A metal firewall may require additional access points, antennas, or cabling to provide adequate coverage and performance across the wireless deployment. A metal firewall may also affect the channel planning, transmit power settings, and antenna orientation of the access points and radios. A metal firewall can be difficult to see visually, as it may be hidden behind walls, ceilings, or floors, or blended with other materials.Therefore, an architect might need access to blueprints or other sources of information to locate and measure any metal firewalls in the building. References:

The traditional guideline limits a wired VLAN to a /24 subnet, which provides enough IP addresses for 253 endpoints. You might have suggested one of three approaches: one VLAN per floor, one VLAN per building, or one VLAN per campus. The one VLAN per floor approach is not recommended because it interferes with roaming and adds complexity. If you did take this approach, the /24 subnets are not large enough for the requirements on every floor. You would need to ask for /23 subnets. The one VLAN per building approach would work if you considered each building its own RF domain. It provides roaming within a building and, if you are using a single cluster at the data center, between buildings. Ifyou deployed two MCs or clusters, one at each building, though, GRE tunneling would be required to support roaming between buildings.

The specifications for the AP models are in the format of Tx:Rx:SU-MIMO:MU-MIMO:MU-MIMO clients, where Tx is the number of transmit antennas, Rx is the number of receive antennas, SU-MIMO is the number of spatial streams supported in single-user MIMO mode, MU-MIMO is the number of spatial streams supported in multi-user MIMO mode, and MU-MIMO clients is the number of MU-MIMO clients that can be served simultaneously.

The customer requirements are:

• Support for MU-MIMO: This means the AP must have a MU-MIMO value greater than 1, as MU-MIMO is a technique that allows multiple spatial streams to be transmitted to different clients at the same time.
• Support for up to four spatial streams, both when MU-MIMO is used and when it is not used: This means the AP must have a SU-MIMO value and a MU-MIMO value of 4, as spatial streams are independent data streams that can be transmitted or received by an antenna.
• Support for transmissions to up to three MU-MIMO clients at the same time: This means the AP must have a MU-MIMO clients value of 3, as this indicates the maximum number of clients that can receive MU-MIMO transmissions from the AP at the same time.

Based on these criteria, only the AP 335 meets the customer requirements, as it has a specification of 4x4:4:4:4:3, which means it has 4 transmit and receive antennas, 4 spatial streams in both SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO modes, and can serve 3 MU-MIMO clients simultaneously. The AP 325 does not meet the customer requirements, as it has a specification of 4x4:4:4:3:3, which means it has only 3 spatial streams in MU-MIMO mode, and can only serve 2 MU-MIMO clients simultaneously.
