Part I - PURPOSE 

Lumberton Board of Education 

Cisco/Aruba Networks Wireless LAN BID – May 2012 

The purpose of this Request For Proposal (RFP) is to invite/solicit prospective vendors 

to submit a proposal to supply a Cisco (approved alternate Aruba Networks) wireless 

network solution to the Lumberton School District. All persons and parties interested in 

providing the installation [hereinafter known as “Vendor”] shall be responsible for 

meeting all the specifications in this RFP in their submitted bids. The RFP provides 

vendors with the relevant operational, performance, application, and architectural 

requirements of the system. The Lumberton School District is accepting proposals to 

supply materials, configure, and install specific parts of the Cisco/Aruba Networks 

Wireless LAN project. 

This project will provide reliable high-speed wireless access in all educational and office 

spaces in the Bobby’s Run and Lumberton Middle schools. Our strategic goal is to 

ensure security, scalability, upgradeability, and ease of management while providing an 

infrastructure that is optimized for instructional technologies. The proposal should 

include access points, appropriate mounting hardware for each location, mounting 

brackets where required, a centralized management system (single physical controller), 

VLAN configuration of district owned/supplied Cisco switches, all necessary annual 

licensing, recurring costs (annual licensing and/or warranties) for different intervals 

(yearly, 3 year, etc.), and on-site training to ensure transfer of knowledge to district 

staff members. 

Phase 1 (Data cabling) and part of Phase 2 (Network switches) of this project have 

already been completed. Designated Cat 6 Ethernet cable for this WLAN project has 

already been run and terminated into patch panels and device (access point) end jacks. 

School maps that include the access point locations are attached. The dedicated Cisco 

gigabit switches for the WLAN project have been installed and configured for our 

existing LAN setup. They have NOT been configured for the WLAN project that will 

require multiple VLAN’s to be set up. The VLAN configuration is part of this project 

(Phase 3).

SCOPE OF WORK 

1. The Vendor shall design the Cisco (alternate Aruba Networks) WLAN to fully support 

each student operating a high-speed wireless device in each classroom. Larger rooms 

designed to hold many people shall be designed for higher user density. 

2. The Vendor shall design the Cisco (alternate Aruba Networks) WLAN to easily 

accommodate the addition of the other two school buildings & District Office. For 

scoping purposes to allow for scalability of the controller/licensing, an additional 60 

access points for the other 2 buildings should be assumed. 

3. The Vendor shall configure all devices and systems needed to implement the new 

wireless network. This includes the access points, centralized management controllers, 

network switches in place, and any additional components required for a secure 

enterprise physical and wireless network. 

4. The Vendor shall work with the District to plan and configure the security and network 

layout as related to the WLAN installation. The District desires to have a minimal number 

of Service Set Ids (SSIDs) with four (4) dedicated VLAN’s, utilizing Microsoft’s Active 

Directory and Radius services. This must include the ability to locate a connected device to 

a particular access point radio from a single login to a single appliance. 

5. The Vendor will configure all SSIDs as determined in step 4.. 

6. The Vendor will perform the physical installation of all WLAN equipment. 

7. The Vendor will configure VLANs that meet the following role attributes: 

� Guest VLAN that provides filtered Internet only network access. 

� Student VLAN that provides filtered Internet, student applications, and 

student file & print server access. 

� Staff VLAN that provides filtered Internet, student & staff applications, 

and student & staff file & print server access. 

� Administrator VLAN that provides filtered Internet, student, staff, and 

administrative applications, and student, staff, and administrative file & 

print server access. 

8. The vendor will configure the WLAN to work in conjunction with existing district 

content filtering and firewall appliance. 

9. The vendor will configure and setup the new RADIUS service authentication to 

integrate with the district’s existing Microsoft Active Directory setup. 

5

SCOPE OF WORK (cont’d) 



10. System should be configured to perform layer 7 firewall configuration. 

11. System should be configured to perform detailed traffic shaping (bandwidth 

throttling). Bandwidth throttling / traffic shaping should be by traffic type (ie – video & 

music streaming, etc). Vendor will work with district staff members to finalize 

configuration on-site.. 

12. System should provide the ability to self-provision for secure guest access. A 

minimum of a splash page with user acceptance of district AUP is required. The ability 

to collect the guest’s e-mail address, wireless device MAC address, and track access is 

preferred. The preferred method would allow guests with mobile devices to selfregister 

for Internet-only access and once registered, receive login credentials via SMS 

text message or e-mail. This access would be temporary for a specific number of 

hours/days with an automatic expiration. The vendor must provide details on what 

type of self-provisioned guest access will be provided with their solution. 

13. A complete post-installation site survey shall be completed to show the minimum 

RSSI (in both the 2.4 GHZ and 5 GHZ bands) in all educational and office space 

locations. This post-installation survey shall be provided to the district once complete. 

14. All work not found in conformance with the intent of the proposal shall be repaired 

promptly at no additional charge. If vendor believes that the intent of this proposal 

cannot be met due to the work done in Phase 1 (Cat 6 cabling) and/or Phase 2 

(Network Cisco Switches), concerns must be made to the Lumberton School District 

Technology Director prior to submitting their proposal. 

15. The Vendor must provide a guarantee that the system will operate and perform as 

advertised when students and staff fully utilize the system. This includes minimum RSSI 

of -68 dBm (in both the 2.4 GHZ and 5 GHZ bands) in all designated spaces. The 

Vendor would be required to provide the appropriate devices at no charge if spaces are 

found that do not meet these performance requirements. The Lumberton School 

District will be responsible for providing the Cat 6 hardwire run and an available gigabit 

port. 

16. The Vendor must follow all Material and Installation Specifications outlined by the 

equipment manufacturer. 

17. The Vendor will provide a minimum of 4 hours of on-site training to a maximum of 

5 Lumberton School District staff members.
