We're currently using XpressConnect to set up our machine but thought I'd
look at the CAT tool as well. XpressConect is configured to only set up
WPA2-Enterprise. Last time I looked, we had 28 WPA-Enterprise users out of
approx 6500 Wouldn't want to have 1 setup tool doing 1 think and another
doing something else. Wouldn't it be a good idea to "pump prime" removal of
WPA-Enterprise by actively disabling it now?
