Board hears list of aging switches and wireless access points, plus security projects
Summary
IT staff provided an itemized inventory showing multiple switches and access points at end‑of‑support and recommended prioritized replacement, plus security and disaster‑recovery projects including DUO two‑factor authentication and backup consolidation.
In a detailed inventory the technology team cataloged core switch models that have reached end‑of‑sale or end‑of‑support, including multiple HP 2530 and HP 2915 series units at district sites and Ruckus wireless access points, several of which are listed as EOL. Matt Jardin said the inventory aims to inform replacement sequencing and that wireless density and backhaul limitations currently constrain classroom coverage.
Jardin also outlined security and business‑continuity projects: consolidating backups (Barracuda and Google/Syscloud), implementing DUO two‑factor authentication for Aeries access, and designing a disaster recovery and business continuity plan. No procurement decisions were made at the meeting; trustees asked staff to return with prioritized contracts and estimated timelines.
