Overview on Motorola Solution and WiNG 5
Motorola is the third largest vendor of wireless LAN access points with approximately 9% of the North American market and the Motorola WLAN portfolio offers a comprehensive portfolio of wireless access points and controllers providing the flexibility to deploy the right solution for any deployment.
All Motorola network elements (access points and controllers alike) run the same Wireless Next Generation version 5 (WiNG 5) code, resulting in a self-aware network where the network elements communicate with each other. IT organizations benefit from simplified configuration and management of all elements of the network due to the homogenous code base – one user interface to learn for all access points and controllers on the network.
Motorola’s WiNG 5 architecture offers adaptive intelligent access points with onboard stateful firewalls and controller functionality. Each adaptive AP has dual, band-unlocked 802.11abgn radios with controller functionality that includes stateful firewall with local traffic routing, SMART RF to optimize channel selection and channel power. Every AP can independently apply security, route traffic, and make optimization decisions, such as power or load-sharing, in collaboration with its AP neighbors. With security at the edge, each AP is capable of supporting guest hotspot traffic that is completely isolated from the private wireless network.
By distributing the intelligence of the network, the responsibility for traffic management is removed which allows controllers to scale the number of access points supported.
Motorola access points provide mobility services at the edge with the following features:
* Wired & Wireless Firewall * QOS – WMM-PS/SIP CAC * Mobility – L2 and L3 stateful roaming * Native IDS/IPS * AAA Server for site survivable networks * DHCP Server, with caching * Dynamic RF Management with
