Description

Required software suite with sophisticated, centralized WLAN pre-deployment planning and configuration tools along with advanced RF optimization and wireless user/group security and access management spanning the entire network.

Lets Users Connect Securely to the Wireless LAN and Roam.

This comprehensive wireless network management software package contains all the features you need to successfully plan, configure, deploy, and manage an enterprise-class wireless LAN. As an integral part of the 3Com Wireless LAN Mobility System, the 3Com Wireless Switch Manager software works with 3Com wireless LAN controllers and switches to centrally manage and control 3Com managed access points (MAPs) for networks demanding complex deployments, with multiple offices or with highly secure WLAN requirements.

The planning portion of this powerful application lets you import site floor plans in a variety of file formats and automatically configure your site for capacity and coverage using the built-in Virtual Site Survey that accounts for a large variety of common RF(Radio Frequency) obstacles. During wireless network deployment, configuration templates are quickly replicated and verified. With a single click your network is set up, as, configurations are pushed to multiple wireless LAN switches, controllers, and managed access points via secure HTTP.

Once installation is complete, the Wireless LAN Switch Manager enables simple and accurate operation of your entire wireless LAN enabling you to stay aware of all air space activities including detecting and locating rogue access points, ad-hoc networks or other RF interferers. Additionally, the manager can automatically adjust MAP power to eliminate coverage gaps and further optimize RF performance.

Building on 3Com's strong wireless security features, 3Com Wireless Switch Manager can fully manage, secure and track on a per-user or per-group basis to all services on the wireless network. With this Identity-Based Networking capability, IT managers can have confidence in the enhanced security of their wireless LAN networks through improved user group authenticated access control, consistently enforced roaming policies, and monitored bandwidth usage.

Import your building's blueprints from popular 3D graphics programs to customize your deployment plan. Built-in formulas automatically determine optimal MAP location and calculate for attenuation effects.

Automatically convert design plans into configuration data for MAPs, including individual RF power-levels and radio channel assignments.

Reduce configuration time and errors with centralized deployment eliminating the need to manually configure each MAP.

Location independent Wireless controller and MAPs operate as an integrated infrastructure even in distributed remote networks, making it easy to expand or modify the WLAN as needed.

Overlays any Layer 2 or Layer 3 wired topology, with no hardware or backbone changes for cost-effective installation.

Run continuous, scheduled or on-demand RF sweeps as needed to detect and locate rogue APs, users, and ad-hoc networks.

Locate users, track roaming history and control individuals bandwidth utilization.

Extensive system level Ethernet statistics include errors and traffic, packet size, Radio statistics, and User session statistics, preserved as users roam across multiple MAPs, all with easy viewing tables and graphs for quick identification of trends.

Fault and event viewer for controllers, switches, and MAPs provide powerful and flexible filtering to drill down on specific events, plus event correlation evaluations.

Secure location independent management enables IT staff to securely manage the WLAN from anywhere. Integrates with management tools such as 3Com Network Director and HP OpenView. Secure management through Web browser via SSL or HTTPS, or command line interface via SSHv2, or Telnet.

Helps ensure only authorized users access the network through centralized policy management which allows IT staff to create user or group policies that allow or deny network access in different parts of the network for secure seamless roaming.
