Chapter 1: Introduction
The 3e-522AW Wireless Access Point is a next generation solution
providing high encryption and compatibility with the AirWave™ Man-
agement Platform™ (AMP). The AMP system is a solution enabling
centralized monitoring and control of diverse components of a WLAN.
The AMP platform collects performance and operations data from mul-
tiple network elements, analyzes the data, and stores it in a relational
database. The AMP Server permits the network administration staff to
provide the highest possible level of security with a flexible management
tool.
Effective management requires the ability to monitor the perfor-
mance of the entire network infrastructure. Wireless networks have
many unique technology characteristics that must be monitored closely
for optimal performance, such as radio signal strength, channel interfer-
ence, throughput, etc. The AMP server in conjunction with 3e-522 Wire-
less Access Point provides the following capabilities:
Real-time Polling
AMP polls all network devices at preset intervals, providing the IT
staff a comprehensive, up-to-date view of their entire WLAN on a single
console.
Alerting
AMP’s alerting package notifies the IT staff when network perfor-
mance problems are detected so that help desk personnel can address
issues before users are affected.
Reporting
AMP stores key performance data in an integrated relational data-
base and generates reports so an IT organization can determine what
changes need to be made to optimize the long-term performance of their
WLAN.
Configuration
The AMP server enables efficient, centralized configuration of access
points (APs) using the following capabilities:
