20-AP Wireless Controller WC7520

RF PLANNING AND MONITORING

Integrated Deployment Planning • Hierarchical view of the network: Floor maps upload and floor maps dimensions input

• Automated RF planning algorithm: Computed number of APs required to cover a floor plan

• Theorical cloud coverage indicated for each AP for positionning assistance on the floor plan

RF Monitoring • Coverage computing per floor plan

• Alert for any detected coverage holes with mitigation options with neighboring APs

• Rogue AP/blacklisted clients triangulation

RF MANAGEMENT

Automatic Channel Allocation • Channel automatic distribution to reduce interference

• Auto-channel allocation takes into consideration the AP location, interferences, and neighborhood maps for each AP

• Modifiable list of corporate channels to be used

• Scheduled mode for auto-channel allocation

• Automatic mode available in case of high level of interference

Automatic Power Control • Optimum transmit power determination based on coverage requirements

• Automatic power control mode available

• Neighborhood scan of RF environment to minimize neighboring AP interference and leakage across floors

Coverage Hole Detection • Automatic mode

• Down APs or compromised RF environment detection with alerts

• Self healing: Automatic neighboring AP power increase to fill in for coverage losses

Load Balancing • AP load monitoring and overload prevention

• Client redirection to lightly loaded neighboring APs

Fast Roaming • Seamless rapid mobility across VLAN and subnets

• Includes 802.11i pre-auth and fast roaming

• Fast roaming support accross L2, and L3 for video, audio and voice over wireless client

QUALITY OF SERVICE

WMM Quality of Service WMM (802.11e) prioritizes traffic for both upstream traffic from the stations to the access points (station EDCA parameters) and

downstream traffic from the access points to the client stations (AP EDCA parameters)

WMM Queues in Decreasing Order

of Priority

• Voice: The highest priority queue with minimum delay, which makes it ideal for applications like VoIP and streaming media

• Video: The second highest priority queue with low delay is given to this queue. Video applications are routed to this queue

• Best effort: The medium priority queue with medium delay is given to this queue. Most standard IP application will use this queue

• Background: Low priority queue with high throughput. Applications, such as FTP, which are not time-sensitive but require high

throughput can use this queue

WMM Power Save Option

WMM power save helps conserve battery power in small devices such as phones, laptops, PDAs, and audio players using IEEE

802.11e mechanisms

Rate Limiting • Rate limit per SSID set as a percentage of total available bandwidth

WIRELESS SECURITY

Client Authentication Protocols • Open, WEP, WPA/WPA2-PSK

• 802.11i/WPA/WPA2 Enterprise with standard interface to external AAA/RADIUS Server

• Local ACLs (512 MAC)

• MAC ACLs based on local AAA Server or external Radius Server

Distinct AAA Server per SSID Yes

RADIUS Accounting Protocol Per Client tracking for:

• Bytes Tx/Rx

• Connect/disconnect time

LDAP-based Authentication • Standard interface to external LDAP server/Microsoft

Active Directory Server

Integrated AAA Server Local database authentication based on WC7520 internal AAA Server

Guest Access • Integrated captive portal available for client authentication in a security profile

• Password based authentification mode: Local user store available, receptionist assigned user name/password

• External Radius server mode: External RADIUS authentication for the captive portal clients

• Open authentication mode: Guest auto registration with email address

• Extraction of logs of guest activity

Captive Portal Configurable portal page, including image files

Rogue Access Points • Rogue AP definition: AP with radio SSID oberved by any of the managed APs and seen transmitting on same L2 wired network

• Detection and mapping of up to 512 rogue APs
