Scaling Enterprise Wireless Local Area Network
As workforce mobility becomes pervasive, enterprises are increasingly considering large-scale deployment of secure wireless local area networks (WLANs). Enterprises are faced with two architectural choices: either extend the fixed edge of the existing network, or create a new mobile edge that spans the local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN) and Internet. The mobile edge architecture not only delivers ubiquitous and secure mobile access, but also delivers unprecedented scalability. Unique capabilities — such as AAA FastConnect, virtual LAN Pooling and Remote AP, created based on the needs of actual, large scale enterprise WLANs — are essential to delivering a reliable, cost-effective and operational enterprise wireless network.
