Mission-Critical Wired and Wireless Solutions for the Enterprise
Today’s enterprise is changing. Between a proliferation of small/branch offices and the growing popularity of teleworking, users have come to expect secure remote access to corporate resources as well as high speed wireless networks. This can result in enormous pressure on corporate IT staff, who simply don’t have the bandwidth to address all of the requirements of rolling VPNS, managed switches, and WLANs to non-technical staff.
Within the corporate site, many enterprises are also expanding their WLANs to improve productivity, reduce switch port plus cabling costs, and bring branch offices online inexpensively. They are also increasing Wi-Fi capacity to address the explosion of Wi-Fi clients including mobile internet devices (MIDs) and smart phones. As a result, near-100% uptime is critical, and multimedia traffic requires enhanced quality of service (QoS) features for optimal user experiences. The distributed, scalable Aerohive architecture has been optimized with the features needed to meet all of these requirements.
Wireless LANs and secure remote access have become mission-critical within the enterprise – with any downtime affecting revenue. Meanwhile, time-bounded voice and video traffic are joining the network and require QoS enhancements to 802.11's basic packet prioritization features. Enterprises also need to tune mixed wireless networks containing 802.11n and legacy 802.11g/b/a equipment to deliver fair network access to all client devices.
