Reporting mechanisms would be useful, such as:<br><br>Squid reporting for the locations with internet access.<br><br>I've played around with sarg for ad-hoc reports, which really came in handy when I got claims that "the internet doesn't work." Not only is it up, but here's what folks are looking at.<br>
<br>On an ongoing basis, maybe sarg generated reports in a password protected Apache dir so teachers and administrators can browse them.<br><br>Bandwidth and Device Reporting.<br><br>I heard fears that with open wifi, everyone and their brother would leech the XS's internet. So I use dhcpstatus and vnstat to generate a simple daily report counting how many XOs, how many other devices, and how much traffic there was.<br>

At least you'd have a quick way to see how many XOs are being brought to school and be able to track that over time.<br>
