Presentation Outline • Why WLS-1280 • Product Overview • Product Features • Architecture Diagram • Web UI • Product Comparison 2
Wireless Network in Enterprise -1/2 • The current choice for enterprise personal computer • The new trend for office workers is turn to Notebook rather than Desktop PC just because of its mobility and the affordable cost • And Wireless interface such as Centrio, is now the standard specification for any notebook -> The Enterprise need WiFi network • However, let’s see how the wireless network is built in the enterprise • Install: Wherever need a AP, just connect one there and wire to the switch • Management: Manage the AP one by one 3
Wireless Network in Enterprise -2/2 • The drawback • Hardware • How to get the optimal location and power for the Access Point at the same time • Maintain • The manager install the AP one by one, yet manage the AP one by one • Security • All the user packets in the air, the enterprise employees, guests, or hackers • WEP or WPA will be the only security • MAC filtering may help but hard to maintain 4
Intranet Access in the Enterprise -1/2 • User management for a middle-size enterprise • The enterprise may have the own domain and user management system or may not • Resources • The enterprise shall have the public resources, such as ERP, Database, File server, wired or wireless 5
Intranet Access in the Enterprise -2/2 • The situation • Manager need to maintain the user systems, employee, guest, but not for hackers through wireless • Since hackers could coming in through wireless LAN, there is security issues to have the Wireless AP in the enterprise • The solution WLS-1280 • Wireless LAN Switch • AAA for all the users • AP Managed • Secured accesses for all users to the Intranet / Internet 6
