Chapter 1. Introduction
D-Link Wireless Controller (DWC), DWC-1000, is a full-featured wireless LAN
controller designing for small network environment. The centralized control function
contains various access point management functions, such as fast -roaming, inter-subnet
roaming, automatic channel and power adjustment, self -healing etc. The advanced
wireless security function, including rouge AP detection, captive portal, wireless
intrusion detection system (WIDS), offers a strong wireless network protection
avoiding attacks from hackers. Optimal network security is provided via features such
as virtual private network (VPN) tunnels, IP Security (IPsec), Point -to-Point Tunneling
Protocol (PPTP), Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP), and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
Empower your road warriors with clientless remote access anywhere and anytime using
SSL VPN tunnels.

Comprehensive Management Capabilities
The DWC include dual-WAN Gigabit Ethernet which provides policy -based
service management ensuring maximum productivity for your business
operations. The failover feature maintains data traffic without disconnecting
when a landline connection is lost. The Outbound Load Balancing feature
adjusts outgoing traffic across two WAN interfaces and optimizes the system
performance resulting in high availabil ity. The second WAN port can be
configured as a DMZ port allowing you to isolate servers from your LAN.

Robust VPN features
A fully featured virtual private network (VPN) provides your mobile workers
and branch offices with a secure link to your network. DWC is capable of
simultaneously managing 20 Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPN tunnels
respectively, empowering your mobile users by providing remote access to a
central corporate database. Site -to-site VPN tunnels use IP Security ( IPsec)
Protocol, Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), or Layer 2 Tunneling
Protocol (L2TP) to facilitate branch office connectivity through encrypted
virtual links.
