RoamAbout Switch Manager software with support for up to 50 Thin-Mode Access Points
Network Administrators need powerful management tools to control configuration, permission and security options for WLAN Switch/Thin Mode Access Point deployments. RoamAbout Switch Manager (RASM) eliminates the complexity of managing an enterprise-scale WLAN. Using RASM, the network administration can quickly and easily plan, configure, optimize and monitor the complete WLAN switch infrastructure.
No longer is it necessary to configure and manage each WLAN Switch or Access Point individually—RASM can manage multiple switches as a single group, to dramatically improve the scalability of WLAN management using existing IT resources. In addition the network administration can create “template configurations” (to define user policies, access control lists
and so on) that are applied to groups of Switches and Access Points simultaneously.
From a Secure Networks™ perspective, RASM provides actionable information that can be used immediately to mitigate threats. For example, if a potential security vulnerability such as a rogue Access Point is detected, RASM can eliminate the guesswork associated with finding this device by automatically triangulating the rogue’s location and creating a “heat map” to guide the network administrator to the target.
RASM also provides a powerful solution for managing guest user access using the optional GuestPass plug-in. GuestPass may be used to grant temporary (both time limited and location specific) WLAN access for guest users. This tool is particularly useful for corporate briefing
centers, and frees IT personnel from direct involvement each time a guest requires WiFi access.
RASM includes a topology Mapping Tool that can combine architectural floor plans with location information for each Access Point to create dynamic color-coded physical maps of the WLAN infrastructure. These maps graphically display wireless coverage patterns, including channel selections, signal quality and communication speeds. The Mapping Tool can even make adjustments for doors, walls, windows and other obstructions that might affect wireless coverage.
