that leaves equipment.
how much would it cost us to have our own equipment?
For those who would like to compute estimates, we used:
2 Juniper M10 routers with GigE and fiber ports
20 or so Cisco 3750 switch/routers with GigE and fiber ports
35 802.11 a/b/g access points with system management boxes
4 or 5 servers for DHCP, DNS, Radius, print queue, RFC cache, etc.
Some of the switches were ganged for extra reliability. If that wasn't deemed
necessary, about a dozen or so might be a minimum set. We could afford to be
pretty liberal because of plentiful inventory and the generosity of the
University.
Add it all up (add a few $K for maintenance fees and miscellaneous) and
divide by 3 years or thereabouts, when it will all have to be
updated/replaced. That should give you a rough annual equipment budget.
