•
Wireless LAN model (ES2-WLAN): a base model that
supports monitoring and testing of 802.11 a/b/g
devices connected to a wireless LAN. Automatically
scans all channels to gather and report statistics on
the health and status of the network. Discovers
access points (APs) and client devices, identifies “top
talkers”, locates rogue devices and flags security
problems. Enables you to perform site surveys so that
you can make sure that all areas of your network
have adequate signal coverage. Also performs
security login verification.

EtherScope Pro (ES2-PRO): a single integrated
wired/wireless analyzer that combines the features
of the wired and wireless models (described earlier).
