Maximum Clients per Controller
None other than maximum clients per AP
L2 Mobility
L2 fast roaming support between the APs
L3 Mobility
L3 fast roaming support with encrypted tunnelling between the APs and the controller
Maximum VLANs per Controller
64 VLANs for SSIDs
1 configurable management VLAN
IP AND VLANS CONFIGURATION
DHCP Server/Relay
Integrated DHCP server
Multiple DHCP server/pool can be added for different VLANs (up to 64)
VLANs for the Wireless Controller
One management VLAN (configurable VLAN ID)
VLANs Access Points / Multiple SSIDs
64 VLANs
VLANs Deployment
The Wireless Controller must have IP connectivity with the access points through the management VLAN. If the Controller and the APs are on different management VLANs, external VLAN routing must allow IP connectivity between the Controller and the APs.
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

Distinct AAA Server per SSID
Yes
RADIUS Accounting Protocol
