Yes, that's why we didn't ask for them.
2. In the RFP, you mentioned that you’re looking for FW throughput of 6 Gbps or greater. Is this requirement based on datasheet performance numbers or real-world numbers? Is this 6 Gbps requirement for firewall only or with all of the features enabled? There’s a big discrepancy between datasheet and real-world performance numbers. Datasheet performance numbers are based on lab "ideal conditions" with 1 rule (any/any) with logging turned off and no NAT's so the datasheet numbers (for all vendors) are going to be much higher than "real world" when all features are enabled.
3. In the RFP, you mentioned that you’re looking for anti-malware as part of the solution. Do you want to include a zero-day/sandboxing solution?
We didn't ask for it, so no. It would be nice to see it as an option.
4. Why would you want a VPN box at a second location?

Answer: Over fiber using existing transceivers. If by any chance there is incompatibility with transceivers, copper is acceptable. - 03/01/2017
Question #32: Can we get an extension on the due date?
Answer: The RFP has been extended to April 6th, 2017. See Addendum #05 - Item 1 - 03/09/2017
Question #33:
Please address the following questions and/or requests for clarification:
• MR84 for outdoor use – didn’t request antennas: https://meraki.cisco.com/products/wireless/antennas-and-power
• MS425-32 – calling out 7 switches but ask for 12 licenses – note: only need 7 licenses for this model
• Page 18 – under group B access switches – calls out MR225 should be MS225
• Page 28 – Part of BOM: Line items 1, 2 and 3 – need to confirm quantities equal one another – keep quantities consistent – further clarification on bullet point #2
• Page 31 - The RFP calls out qty. 1 stacking cable for access switches - Are you planning to physically stack more than one switch? If so, what are the total number of stacking cables you’ll need?
Answer:
See Addendum #04, Item 3 in regards to switches matching licensing count.
See Addendum #04, Item 1 clarifying this.
See Addendum #04, Item 3 in regards to keeping quantities consistent.
See Addendum #04, Item 3 updating these quantities.
To clarify, bullet points are for listing additional items that go with the solution.
Example:
Manufacturer ABC
Part ABC is the switch
Part DEF is the rack mount ears that go with the switch
Part GHI are the power cables.
Therefore, two additional bullet points must be used to fill out the sheet.
Manufacturer LMNOP
Part XYZ is for the switch, which includes rack mount ears and power cables.
For this vendor, they don't need to fill out the bullet points.

Question #37: Group F: Solutions Labor Installation Pricing Page # 42 Wireless-Install
There is no distinction between Indoor and Outdoor WAP Labor Installation. Due to the cost difference associated with Indoor and Outdoor WAP installs, can the district provide a separate line item for Indoor Wap Labor Installation and Outdoor Wap Labor Installation? Having said that how are the vendors to proceed in pricing per each unit for the Outdoor WAP's? Should this labor price per unit include the Outdoor WAP, Configuration, Outdoor Enclosure and all associated cabling and hardware?
Answer: This has already been addressed. See Addemdum #04, Item 4 - 03/28/2017
Question #38: Will Site walks be available for examining the Outdoor Wireless Cabling requirements and will the there be an extension on the RFI deadline after these site visits?
Answer: This has already been addressed. See Addemdum #04, Item 4 - 03/28/2017
Question #39: Will any common areas for Indoor WAP's ( i.e. Gyms or Multi Purpose Rooms) require cages to be installed? If so can the district provide a quantity required for each vendor to provide as part of their proposal and how they should account for that on the pricing sheet?
Answer: No. That is why it is not on the RFP. - 03/28/2017

General question about count of school site locations for all requests: The District has 12 K-12 schools as listed on the school site page and QUEST Community Day School.

General question, are e-mail submittals acceptable? Yes, e-mail subittals are acceptable. Paper/mail submittals must contain an electronic version in Word or PDF format on a USB flash drive or sent via e-mail.
Wanted to verify something that was discussed at our job walk of 2/16: It was indicated during the meeting that Monrovia USD would be providing the displays for this project (as well as handling the mounting of said displays, so we should not include such labor in our quote). Is this accurate? Yes, the displays will be provided and mounted by the district prior to the installation of the bid equipment.
Following up on above question, will bidders be notified prior to the bid due date of what specific display the district intends to use for this project (or at the very least, can we assume for the purposes of our quote that whatever display the district chooses will have the proper number of inputs to meet the specifications indicated in the scope of work without having to use a 3rd party switcher). MUSD will not provide the make or model of display before the due date. Bidder should provide any necessary audio/video converters/switchers such that there is at least one (1) HDMI output to connect to the display and all audio from bidder installed inputs will play over the bidder installed speakers. Any bidder provided audio/video converters/switchers should be controlled by the classroom controller.
Room count and ceiling type corrections:
Monroe - 20 hard ceilings, 12 tile ceilings.
Wild Rose - 9 hard ceilings, 20 tile ceilings.
Will the display used in this system have an HDMI input? Yes, the display (projector or LCD panel) the district installs will have an HDMI input.
In the bid documents it states that all labor for this project will be warrantied for 5-years and all equipment for this project for 20-years. This is far longer than is typical for audio-visual installation projects. Is this a firm requirement? That is a mistake we are looking for 1 year on all labor and 5 years on all equipment.
My understanding is that the vendor who is chosen for this project must have either a C7 or C10 license (but having both are not required). Is that correct? That is correct.

Further clarification of Priority 1 On-Premise equipment

Clarification of Priority 1 VoIP:
[working link coming soon!]
Corrections/Clarifications:
1. Correction: Section 2.2.1 DO PRI (Dial in) should = 4. We have 4 Incoming T1/PRIs as the DO for a total of 92 Inbound/outbound trunks. Vendors should provide an adequate number of Inbound/Outbound trunks for their proposal.
2. Clarification: Section 2.2.1 Vendors should provide a complete end-to-end voice solution to replace the existing voice infrastructure. The District would like our voice and data networks to remain separate. The ability to route calls over our data network in the event of a failure would be an option. Having a voice T1/PRI for each site allows services to function in the event of a failure of our 1GB Fiber WAN. We do not expect vendor proposals to rely on the 1GB Fiber WAN for their services.
3. For questions about compatibility please see the product requirements in the RFP. The requirements are provided as a reference and to ensure compatibility with our existing systems. We are attempting to keep our costs lower by reusing as much of our existing infrastructure as possible. We expect that proposals will include equipment equivalent to our reference specification and meet our compatibility requirements. Specific proposals and products will be evaluated after 1:00 PM, February 21, 2011.
4. From the RFP "Provided switching equipment must be capable of stacking with our existing Cisco 3750G switches." Can you define “Stacking?”:
5. "Pre-Approval" of equivalent equipment: Due to the large number of potential equivalent products the district will not "Pre-Approve" any product. The use of equivalent products, that meet the specifications and compatibility requirements listed in the RFP, is acceptable.
