Network Capabilities

Multiple BSSID

Supports up to 4 BSSIDs, allowing the creation of multiple virtual access points

VLANs

Supports 802.1q – up to 4 VLANs

SSID to VLAN mapping

Supports mapping of SSIDs to VLANs to securely separate workgroups across wireless and wired domains

Spanning Tree

Supports 802.1d Spanning Tree Protocol to prevent loops when using wireless distribution system (WDS) links as redundant links in a distribution system

Operating modes

Access point mode, point-to-point bridge mode, point-to-multipoint bridge mode, repeater mode, wireless client mode

Load balancing

Allows bandwidth control with user-defined CPU usage ratios

Auto-channel selection

On boot-up, the access point selects the least congested channel

802.11d regulatory domain

Enables the access point to provide radio channel settings for client devices, facilitating easy client access as they move across regulatory domains

Security

WEP/WPA/WPA2

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) 64-bit/128-bit, WPA-Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK), WPA2-PSK, WPA-ENT, WPA2-ENT

Access control

Wireless connection control: MAC-based

SSID broadcast

SSID broadcast enable/disable

Client isolation

Supports wireless client isolation between and within SSIDs

802.1X

Wireless clients can be authenticated through IEEE 802.1X

802.1X supplicant

Supports 802.1X supplicant on the Ethernet port to allow the access point to authenticate itself to the network

RADIUS server

Up to 2 RADIUS servers can be configured for redundancy purposes

WPS

Supports WPS, a WI-FI Alliance specification for simple and secure setup of a wireless network

Rogue access point detection

New access points detected that have not been categorized as known are logged as rogue access points, allowing the administrator to clamp down on unapproved devices in the network
