|
FEATURE |
BENEFIT |
|---|---|
|
Guest Services |
Give guests secure, high-performance Wi-Fi access, while isolating their traffic from the private business network easily. Customize your guest Wi-Fi portal with your logo, brand and messages. Provide Wi-Fi access through Guest Passes, or have guests authenticate using social media accounts such as Facebook to eliminate the hassle (and security holes) of sharing |
|
Application Visibility and Control |
Monitor the network usage patterns of over 2,200 applications with Deep Packet Inspection, and find out which ones are consuming the most resources. You can define application-specific access rules (such as limiting access to YouTube or social media), or even limit Wi-Fi speeds for specific applications and/or SSIDs. |
|
Resiliency |
Continue to access printers and other network devices even if internet connectivity fails. Users stay connected to the Wi-Fi network even if one or several APs fail for any reason, as long as at least one AP in the network is online. |
|
Security |
Use DPSK to eliminate the risks of shared passwords and lock down access to the Wi-Fi network-without complex configurations. In addition, secure your network and protect your clients with WPA encryption, client isolation and 802.1x for RADIUS and Active Directory. |
|
Zero Touch Mesh |
Add new Unleashed APs to the existing network securely over the air. Dramatically speed up and simplify the installation of an Unleashed network. |
