vWLAN™ Innovation & Customer Benefits Centralized Control and Fully Distributed Architecture Highly Scalable Solution –Data plane scalability only limited by AP backplane capacity (i.e. 200Mbps*1500 APs = 300Gbps) Simple to Deploy –Real-time centralized control software that runs on an appliance and scales by adding AP licenses not more hardware. Less number of WLAN devices to manage and support Flexibility in how and where the controller is deployed (i.e. VMWare) Lower Total Cost of Ownership
vWLAN™ Innovation & Customer Benefits Robust Security –Bluesocket’s has a long history of providing advanced security, universal authentication, guest access, W- IDS, and endpoint compliance. Policy enforcement at the edge rather than centralized controller –Security is an Out-of-Band NAC to provide both security and scalability Wired equivalent Performance –Tighter integration into the wired network enables scalable, latency optimized performance for time sensitive applications.
Campus-South Campus-West Campus-South Campus-North / NOCC Campus-East Central Control Distributed Enterprise – Future of Wireless
Branch Office Deployment Enabled Remote Office AP solution Remote office is a WAN link away from vWLAN All data traffic is left local to the subnet Authentication traffic is sent back to the vWLAN AP redirects web traffic to vWLAN captive portal Standby SSID feature If the remote link is lost, the SSIDs switch from 802.1x/Open to WPA-PSK, to allow continued local service
Bluesocket Solution Benefits Unified WLAN/LAN Environment Fully Integrated Software Centric distributed architecture Scalable, Secure and Flexible Award-winning n solution with differentiated wireless features Go Green AND Save
