Chapter 13 HiveOS
You can deploy a single HiveAP and it will provide wireless access as an autonomous AP (access point). However, if
you deploy two or more HiveAPs in a hive, you can provide superior wireless access with many benefits. A hive is a
set of HiveAPs that exchange information with each other to form a collaborative whole (see
Figure 1
). Through
coordinated actions based on shared information, hive members can provide the following services that autonomous
APs cannot:
•
Consistent QoS (Quality of Service) policy enforcement across all hive members
•
Coordinated and predictive wireless access control that provides fast roaming to clients moving from one hive
member to another
•
Best-path routing for optimized data forwarding
•
Automatic radio frequency and power selection
