Introduction

The Brocade Mobility™ 9510 Enterprise NC Controller lets you centrally administer networks up to 
10,240 WLAN access points geographically dispersed over numerous telecommuter and small or 
medium sized enterprise locations. Brocade Access Points intelligently handle the traffic flows, 
quality of service, mobility and security at remotely distributed locations, while the Mobility 
RFS9510 Controller provides a single point for configuration, policy setting, and remote 
troubleshooting. Hotspot configuration, security policy management, and statistics aggregation are 
all done by one powerful NoC controller. This efficient WLAN architecture makes controlling the 
network easier, and reduces the hardware expense required to support large networks.
