WLAN Controller

Who wouldn’t wish for secure IT network infrastructure and even greater efficiency in its administration? Central management of WLAN network infrastructure makes this a reality.

The aim is to implement a central configuration management with complete control over secure communications between all access points (APs) and mobile clients, wherever they may be located. This system puts even small and mid-sized companies and public institutions in a position to operate practical, easy to manage WLAN environments.

 

LANCOM WLC-4100

Central zero-touch management for LANCOM Access Points and WLAN routers

The LANCOM WLC-4100 is ideally suited due to its scalability and extensibility for WLAN installations with 100 upto 1000 Access Points as found in many companies and public institutions and in universities and healthcare. It can easily manage 1000 Access Points with upto 3000 simultaneously logged on Clients and gives new configurations to the Access Points in a flash. The Controller ensures a simplified installation and a secure setup and provides multiple use of the WLAN infrastructure for different applications and usergroups.

  • Centralised Firmware deployment and management of 100 Access Points (opt. up to 1000)
  • Automatic discovery, configuration and channel assignment of Access Points
  • Monitoring and ensuring the security and QoS policies
  • Scalability and cascadability through multiple controllers including redundancy
  • Unique system design which prevents “single point of failure”
  • Comprehensive support of VLAN, RADIUS and 802.1x/EAP functions
  • Full performance with 802.11n based Access Points

LANCOM WLC-4025+

Central management for up to 100 LANCOM Access Points and WLAN routers

Operation doesn’t get much simpler than in Controller mode—simply “plug in” a new Access Point and the Controller takes over the setup, implementation and monitoring of WLAN security policies. LANCOM WLAN Controllers are ideal for WLAN infrastructure for multiple user groups and applications such as for data, Voice- over-WLAN and WLAN guest accounts. As “smart controllers” they forward the data depending on the application or even the user — by switching user data at the AP for maximum performance, by separating the LAN into a dedicated VLAN for WLAN guest accounts, or by tunneling the user data to the Controller for roaming between IP subnets. The flexible switching options ensure that the WLAN Controller does not end up being a central bottle-neck. Even remote sites are easily integrated into the centralized management over an IP connection for greater convenience.

  • Centralised Firmware deployment and management of 25 Access Points (optional up to 100)
  • Automatic discovery, configuration and channel assignment of Access Points
  • Monitoring and ensuring the security and QoS policies
  • Scalability and cascadability through multiple controllers including redundancy
  • Unique system design which prevents “single point of failure”
  • Comprehensive support of VLAN, RADIUS and 802.x/EAP function
  • Support of the 802.11n based Access Points – without additional licenses
