Enterasys Roamabout AP1102

Enterasys Roamabout AP1102 ... model also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) and dual internal antennas to simplify deployment. The RoamAbout AP1102 also has two external connectors (one for each band) to support external range extender antennas. The RoamAbout AP1102 help to create a unified wireless network that scales easily from a single switch and a few access points to a network with more than 100 switches and more than 1, 000 access points.

Deployment and management have been simplified. The RoamAbout AP1102 can be installed anywhere in the network. The access point will automatically find the wireless switch and configure itself, whether it is on the same subnet or different subnet from the wireless switch. The RoamAbout wireless network supports Enterasys' Secure Networks Acceptable Use Policy, allowing a single sign-on across both wired and wireless networks to ensure the same behavior across both, including VLAN membership, Quality of Service (QoS), and automatically configured filter/ forward rules. These policies stay with users wherever they roam because the RoamAbout wireless switches ensure secure and seamless access to the appropriate information services.

The Secure Networks capability extends to state-of-the-art wireless intrusion detect ion capabilities. Rogue access points are detected and automatically located on a floor plan. In addition, countermeasures can be applied to the rogue to render it unusable and can even automatically disconnect the rogue from the wired network.
