Ruckus Smart OS Datasheet - VoIP Supply

Smart/OSSmart Wi-Fi Application EngineSmart Wireless LAN software forRuckus Smart WLAN controllersRuckus Smart/OS is a software suite and application engineincluded in every Ruckus ZoneDirector Smart Wireless LAN(WLAN) controller that delivers a myriad of breakthrough WLANfeatures not found in any other centrally-managed wirelesssystem.Designed for busy networking and IT staff, Ruckus Smart/OS isone of the industry’s most elegant and straightforward WLANsystems available today. Smart/OS leverages a highly- intuitiveWeb interface that enables everything with a click of a mouse.At the heart of Smart OS is a unique set of advanced capabilitiesmade extremely simple to configure and manage. These includeadaptive wireless meshing, advanced RF management, robustsecurity capabilities, simple-to-use guest networking, hot spotauthentication and traffic redirection .In addition, Smart OS offers all the traditional WLAN managementtasks – sophisticated authentication, state-of-the-artencryption, fast roaming, guest networking and wireless intrusiondetection – standard in centrally-managed WLAN systems.With Smart/OS, a central dashboard gives IT staff a complete ata-glanceoverview of the entire WLAN environment from recentuser and system activities to detailed usage summaries, mostfrequently used access points (APs) to currently active WLANsand much more.From this dashboard, administrators can quickly and easilydrill down to specific APs and clients to test Wi-Fi connectivity,determine the current used channels, troubleshoot problems,block clients and perform a number of other monitoring andconfiguration tasks.With Smart/OS, up to 32 discrete WLANs can be created andmapped to the same or different APs or VLANs. WLANs can alsobe grouped and shared by specific APs.BENEFITSUltra-simple WLAN configuration and administrationAn intuitive, graphic-rich Web interface makes WLAN configurationand ongoing administration the easiest it has ever been.Elegant guest networking without the hassleEnabling guest access can be performed in minutes. Customizeguest-pass printout pages, generate random or exact passesunique to every user and define the duration of each guest pass.Flexible and scalable WLAN configurationCreate up to 32 unique WLAN per controller. Maps WLANs tospecific APs or VLANs and create WLAN groups to be shared bycertain APs.Smart Mesh Networking for flexible WLAN deploymentA simple checkbox enables Smart Mesh Networking for the entireWLAN. Once enabled, APs require only power source and selfconfigureand self-optimize.Users access policies provide rich WLAN controlAdministrators can easily create and enforce access controls basedon specific users, traffic types or TCP ports.Multi-site authentication to scale large deploymentsSupport for WISPr tunneling from each ZoneDirector allows alltraffic to be automatically directed to a central NOC or externalWeb server for remote authentication and processing.Seamless integration with existing network infrastructureAuthentication using RADIUS, native Active Directory or LDAP viaa captive portal makes integration with existing network elementsseamlessly.Robust remote managementSNMP support lets administrators remotely control and easilyintegrate Ruckus Smart WLANs with existing management systemsor using the Ruckus FlexMaster Wi-Fi management platform.
