Ensures new APs automatically receive correct configuration and prevents security vulnerabilities with deliberate resets. Allows centralized management of AP settings including group updates of firmware 1. Redirects Supports settable transmit power levels to adjust coverage cell size 2. Simplifies installation by choosing best possible channel upon installation. Allows extension of wireless LAN to areas without Ethernet wiring parking lots, long corridors, etc for IEEE This information will allow for reasonable management of a few access points.
In addition, administrators can configure access points through the software and, most usefully, duplicate and download configurations from one access point to an unlimited number of others.
Believe them: The software is not compatible with Windows XP. Moving devices from the discovery window into named virtual groups is a matter of cut and paste. One of the more interesting statistics offered by the software is Client Load Distribution.
This allows a manager to see the number of clients associated with up to 20 different access points and the traffic load generated on each one. In installations where access points have been deployed to offer reasonable bandwidth and response times to clients, this statistic provides a concise way of learning whether the distribution of access points is successful.
Certain functions performed by Wireless LAN Manager, such as device discovery, add some load to the network traffic; however, these functions can be scheduled to repeat at intervals that will disrupt the network as little as possible while still providing reasonable information for WLAN management. For major maintenance tasks, such as downloading new operating software, updating firmware, or rebooting access points, bulk sessions can be scheduled for times when interruption to network service will impact as few users as possible.
It wraps the tools in a useable, easy-to-understand interface, and provides facilities for alerting managers to problems and creating audit trails for those issues. With all this, the build we tested did have one drawback -- it seemed unstable. On two occasions, the software froze on the server which was running no other applications and closed. Both times, the software recovered on restarting and functioned well after that. As for the wireless card itself, the Orinoco In our testing, we associated with access points from Cisco, Symbol, 3Com, Enterasys, and Proxim, with no discernable differences in performance or capabilities between any of the five.
The two drawbacks to the Orinoco card are present on every When an Second, the transition between There are currently no ratings for this product yet. Features Projects.
