The demands on organizations' wireless networks
- such as increased connection counts, bandwidth consumption, need for seamless roaming & extended perimeters
- are all taxing on network performance, & complicate the management of existing 802.11 wireless network infrastructures. The challenge facing many businesses is how to preserve compatibility with legacy 802.11 technologies; enhance & optimize wireless networks through centralized management & control across all nodes of the WLAN while at the same time, maintaining maximum security. The Sonic WALL Clean Wireless solutions combine high-performance 802.11n technology with enterprise-class network security appliances to deliver unparalleled wireless network security & performance, while dramatically simplifying the set-up & management of any 802.11-based wireless network. The solution is based on Sonic WALL Sonic Point-N series wireless access points, which support the IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n standards, to provide secure, higher speed access to data, voice & video over high bandwidth wireless LANs. Scalable to networks of any size, Sonic Point-N wireless access points require no pre-configuration, as they are centrally configured & managed by any current Sonic WALL firewall
- no additional wireless access controller is required. The seamless integration of wireless access points with best-in-class next-generation firewall or unified threat management firewall security featuring advanced application intelligence & control technology ensures that wireless traffic is scrutinized with the same intensity as wired network traffic. As a result, IT administrators can build & easily manage high-performance, distributed wireless networks with unified policy management across both the wireless & wired networks. Sonic Point-N Dual-Radio wireless access points allow the dedication of one radio to rogue access detection while the other supports users, helping meet regulatory compliance.
