Lets Users Connect Securely to the Wireless LAN and Roam |

As part of the 3Com¢ē Wireless LAN Mobility System, the 3Com Wireless LAN Controller WX2200 with 3Com
Wireless Switch Manager software centrally manages and controls 3Com wireless LAN Managed Access
Points (MAPs) for those networks demanding complex deployments, or with multiple offices or highly secure
LAN requirements.
|
| |
Control MAP configuration and optimize radio-frequency (RF) coverage and performance using the wireless
controller managed from the 3Com Wireless Switch Manager accessed anywhere on the network.
With a few keystrokes, change parameters for multiple MAPs, eliminating the time-consuming task of
individually configuring each device, and providing simple setup.

Because wireless clients are mobile, 3Com uses innovative Identity-Based Networking to deliver network
services based on user identity instead of ports or devices. Multiple controllers and switches, grouped into
a Mobility Domain, share user databases to support mobility and security across the entire network
infrastructure, including remote offices.
|
| |
The 3Com Wireless LAN Mobility System significantly enhances 3Com's existing foundation of wireless
security
with centralized security management.
The exchange of user-based information within the Mobility Domain adds an entirely new level of control for
user and group access to network resources. Once more, sharing user-specific security policies between
WLAN controllers and switches results in a consistent enforcement of user and group attributes across the
WLAN as the user roams.

| |
3Com WX4400 and WX2200 wireless controllers, WX1200 switches, and WXR100 remote office wireless
switches can be mixed and matched together within a Mobility Domain to manage and control thousands
of MAPs for unparalleled scalability.
|
| |
The WX2200 Wireless LAN Controller, initially configured to support 24 MAPs, is expandable in increments
of 24 MAPs to support up to a total of 120 MAPs for "pay as-you-grow" flexibility. For convenience, the
following bundle packages, with varying numbers of MAP support, are also available:
