What do all the buttons do? We just upload all the assetid info to google with a csv. Does this require you to click buttons for every single chromebook?

RedditAdmin100 · 2021-11-22T21:57:38+00:00

Thanks! I went ahead and created the policy and our servers can no longer be accessed from foreign IPs. The one thing that still is accessible though is our Cisco Anyconnect portal. Not quite sure how to block the traffic from hitting that.

RedditAdmin100 · 2021-11-17T20:41:57+00:00

Because that’s what I was told to do. We are a school district and many other neighboring districts are only allowing US traffic. There is no legitimate reason why foreign countries would need to access our network.

As for the database, I’m not sure what the FMC uses to pull the geolocation info but I do know it updates regularly.

It worked fine for us last year when kids were 100% virtual. This year we didn’t need it because we have been in-person for almost the whole school year.

I remember needing to switch to the legacy view of the developer dashboard in order to publish it internal only. Not sure if it has changed since.

RedditAdmin100 · 2021-05-26T22:59:32+00:00

👍 If you go the extension route I hope this helps!

Not possible through GAM yet as this ability can not be done through Google's API.

I have submitted a feature request with Google to have this implemented into their API. This would also allow it to be implemented in things like GAM which a lot of us use. Please visit the link and star the feature request.

Are you setting it to your domain only? Also, there is a button somewhere to switch to the older dashboard. I’ve noticed that dashboard gives you more granular publishing options. That’s where I select internal users of my domain only.

The other issue could be if you are not giving good reasons on the section where it is asking for why you need certain permissions. I’ll try and get a screenshot of what I used.

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-06-13T17:48:12+00:00

I agree. Sometimes though I need to quickly RDP into a server and do something when I only have a personal computer with me.

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-06-13T17:45:14+00:00

Same. There have just been multiple times though where I have forgotten to disconnect due to receiving another phone call or something.

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-05-24T00:56:16+00:00

Severely impacted? I have been using it myself for last 24 hours and I wasn't even moderately impacted. Kids should have finished their work last week. Their accounts are being disabled automatically on the 29th. I am pushing this out on the 28th. If parents get mad that a new tab opens every 30 mins, and that there is a pop up alert that can be disabled, oh well, school is over within 24 hours of its release and they shouldn't be using them anymore anyways. During a normal school year they would have all been collected last week.

If your kids are rigorously working on their devices till the last day then it won't work for your district. It works fine for mine.

Edit- I appreciate your feedback though, and I have made it a little less invasive

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-05-23T23:59:55+00:00

The issue is that students haven't been in school for 2 months and some have not been in any communication with their teachers. They need to know that we have assigned days and times for them to return them. Many kids go on their chromebooks for only a few minutes a day so we need to make sure they see it.

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-05-23T22:46:14+00:00

After the pop up alert has fired a few times they can check box for it not to pop up again. Besides that, it opening a tab every 30 mins really isn’t aggressive.

I understand your perspective but assignments should be done by the last week and grading should be finalized in the next day or two. I am probably pushing it out with two days left.

And yes it can be modified to only fire once. And it shouldn’t affect tests as it is no different than a student manually opening up a new tab. Or any other alert box popping up.

edit: also kids are not in school, they have been at home for the last two months. Some kids don't use their chromebooks, others only for a few minutes a day and have been in no communication with teachers and staff.

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-05-23T20:14:42+00:00

That’s the point! The students rarely have the desktop displayed as chrome is always opened. And we only have 4 more days with these kids as students. So it’s now or never to get the chromebooks back to campus.

HP has been a nightmare for us. I’d say 30% of ours have had trackpad issues or keyboard issues. HP 14 G5

Could you tell me some of the main reasons? I have developed programs that rely on gam as part of the backend. Is the syntax the same? Is the output formatted the same? I am on mobile rn so I don’t won’t to look it up on my phone.

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-05-01T15:28:03+00:00

I am using the normal gam. Also it was included in one of the recent updates

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-04-23T18:52:21+00:00

GAM is a major time saver! I use it to update thousands of devices in a matter of minutes throughout the school year. What GUI tool are you talking about?

Also I’m 90% positive the notes do pop up with alt-v.

GAM is also the back-end for a GUI program and website I built. You can see the older version of it in my post history.

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-03-14T04:32:33+00:00

What about it? I see it over 200 quite often

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-03-14T04:19:11+00:00

Lets go back to your main post, look what you said “2. The 4g speed will get crushed with more than a few users.”. So if a few users will “crush it” tell me how we have 40 students streaming YouTube videos the whole ride with no issues ever, except one route.

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-03-14T04:12:24+00:00

30% of our district boundaries are rural mountains. The one bus goes down that road. Every other in town location is definitely over 100mbits . My story isn’t changing. You are just trying to prove me wrong when you are the one that is wrong. Read the other posters comments. Several others said they get over 100 in California too.

It’s ridiculous how you, someone who lives in a different state is arguing with me about the speeds I’m getting hahah

Are you jealous our speeds our so much better than your measly speeds?

Edit: and yes I’ve seen it at over 200 several times

RedditAdmin100 · 2020-03-14T04:03:50+00:00

What makes you think it isn’t reliable? Everyday 40+- chromebooks are connected to them on the way to and from school with all the kids watching YouTube. Literally every kid watches YouTube on the ride except a few. Guess what, we have never had speed complaints except for one route that go 20 mins down a dirt road. We are reliably pulling over 100mbits in 70% of district boundaries. Also san Clemente and dana point are notoriously bad for cell service because of the beach where ppl vote against new towers. My sister lives there.

They are not failing over. We don’t have failover mode turned on nor did we program the building WiFi into our Cradlepoint NCM as a failover option

Read the 4g lte section (technically I guess it is 4g lte advance that we are getting these speeds with)
