There will be only three things there:

- 1: The firewall (which has an internet-facing port in any case)
- 2: The access points themselves
- 3: Other users. The only users who will be using this network are users
already issued with laptops suitable for using on dial-in internet
connections "out in the field" in any case.

How bad is it if people can snoop this?

I should note that this will be in the centre of the 3rd floor of a large
building, and unlikely to be within range of anyone outside the building...
