As with any full-featured network equipment, deploying the
Alcatel Wireless LAN (Wireless LAN) solution requires a degree of
planning. The process may involve multiple components as well
as various individuals in your organization. As the network
manager, you should become familiar with the components and
deployment summary outlined in this section.
The Alcatel Wireless LAN Solution
The Alcatel Wireless LAN solution consists of three major
components:
z
Alcatel Wireless LAN Switch. This is an enterprise-class
switch into which multiple Access Points (APs) and Air Moni-
tors (AMs) are connected and controlled.
z
Alcatel Wireless Access Point. This is a next-generation wire-
less transceiver which functions as an AP or AM. Although
third-party APs can be used with the Alcatel Wireless LAN
system, the Alcatel AP provides the best features and easiest
integration.
z
Alcatel AOS-W Switch Software. This software intelligently
integrates the Wireless LAN switch and APs to provide load
balancing, rate limiting, self healing, authentication, mobility,
security, firewalls, encryption, and centralization for monitor-
ing and upgrades.
