possibly yes i'll try it out see if my utm picks it up

The student network is vlaned separately, we tunnel their traffic to a vpn provider upstream ( since we have had issues with kids torrenting and other issues on our network. ) AT the UTM level we filter dns, and have a strict whitelist filtering, where we block all connections unless it is on the whitelist. further most out bound ports for services like ssh, teamviewers ping home servers etc are block, with only 80 allowed and 443 is ssl sniffed, i.e (MITM) This plus the fact that we assiciate each students login with their student file, it keeps most of them at bay, i have had some students try to use zero days in our previous consumer aps before till we witched to an enterprise grade aps. To access and use the unfiltered vlan haha.

Oh yeah we have that too, My job is IT mangement/ sys admin, so its up to me to make sure they don't breach web filters and such. some of the ways the kids try and bypass them, its funny as hell. but we block most social media on a dns level so it keeps them at bay for the most part. Thankfully due to QOS and rate limiting at the wifi ap keeps our bandwidth under control.

14 minimum, I got my first phone when i was 14 and only cause i went to school using public transit. It was a smartphone ( HTC dream) but i currently work at a school k-12, and often see students as young as grade 4 have smartphones. It is totally unnecessary at this age, i would agree with the whole education thing, except phone are nothing but a pain in the butt in the class room. Don't get me wrong before i started working in education i was all for kids getting phones, but seeing now the issues it causes with cyber bulling and sexting, and the massive amounts of distracted kids in schools. It is better to hold off untill your kids are more mature, a simple call only phone would be fine but not a smart phone. and im 22, yet when i have a kid, he's waiting till 14. ps interesting side note, a school board in toronto banned snapchat, netflix etc due to bandwith issues http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/tdsb-extends-snapchat-ban-1.4275511

22, Sys admin, high five figures. I’ve got my main rig, a gaming laptop, and a rack with a a bunch of servers sitting in it.

Yeah i think that's best, I'll look into some new and refub options. thanks

Yeah this is what i was leaning towards, but it could be interesting in what other approachs exist

I'll look into both, but multi-point requires thin clients no? i was thinking of a direct attached system

Hey guys, For my work i currently need to build a little computer lab (its a school) we have a byod policy but nonetheless we need a lab. I was gonna simply get 10-15 systems from normal vendor(dell,hp,acer,asus etc) ($500) a Computer performance requirements are not high a simple dual core i3 level with 4-6 GB of ram should be sufficient.Use would be basic productivity work in Ms office 2016. Some programming work and various IDEs, and maybe some light Photoshop work. Now my question is would be better from a money point of view to build a server like Linus did for the gaming ( not as pricey tho) Im assuming for each VM id need a separate GPU. So maybe 4-8 VMs per Tower. As for budget max id spend is 7500 CAD for components excluding monitors and Keyboard/mouse etc. So what do you guys recommend is this even possible
