Product Description 
The Juniper Networks
®
 WLA Series Wireless LAN Access Points provide complete client 
access, spectrum analysis, mesh, and bridging services. Featuring support for 802.11n 
as well as 802.11a/b/g, the WLA Series provides seamless mobility both indoors and 
outdoors, and it enables scalable deployment of wireless voice over IP (VoIP), video, and 
real-time location services.
The WLA Series comes with complete security and networking services, along with 
advanced performance and scalability features which enable the access points to offload 
controllers by inspecting and forwarding traffic locally and performing encryption and 
security enforcement at the access point. The WLA Series also provides band steering, 
client load balancing, dynamic authorization, quality of service (QoS), bandwidth controls 
and dynamic call admission control (CAC)—all of which combine to ensure a more 
consistent user experience as traffic is more evenly distributed across controllers, access 
points, and radios. This also improves scalability, providing the same consistent user 
experience for thousands of mobile users and devices.
The WLA Series is simple to deploy and can easily be configured and managed remotely. 
Once installed, the WLA Series access points automatically monitor the data integrity and 
radio frequency (RF) signal strength of wireless channels, and continually tune for optimal 
RF channel and transmit power. Continuous scanning of the RF spectrum also allows 
early detection, classification, avoidance and remediation of performance degrading 
interference sources. 
WLA Series access points enforce stringent prioritization of delay sensitive traffic for voice 
and other critical applications and provide granular quality of service (QoS), and bandwidth 
management capabilities on a per application, per user or per SSID basis. Wi-Fi Multimedia 
(WMM) or SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) can be configured to ensure optimal QoS for voice 
traffic. Access point policies allow per user, protocol or class-of-service (CoS) mapping. 
WLA Series access points may also be deployed in branch locations away from a main 
campus in a controller-less plug and play deployment model. This reduces the cost 
and complexity of installing wireless access in remote sites. They can be managed via 
the WAN or through the Internet by controllers at headquarters, and will maintain local 
session persistence indefinitely, if the WAN link goes down. If the connection to the 
controller is lost, wireless services continue uninterrupted; connected clients maintain 
wireless connection to the AP, new clients can connect and authenticate locally, and the 
Wireless Intrusion Detection System (WIDS) continues. Furthermore, the new country 
code override feature in the remote AP profile allows the AP’s channel and transmit 
power to be set to meet the specific country’s regulatory requirement where it is located, 
independent of the location of the WLAN controller which is managing it.
Product Overview
The Juniper Networks WLA Series 
Wireless LAN Access Points provide 
client access, spectrum analysis, 
bridging, and wireless mesh services 
for indoor and outdoor deployments 
of enterprise wireless LANs (WLANs). 
Configured and controlled by Juniper 
Networks WLC Series Wireless LAN 
Controllers, the WLA Series performs 
deep packet inspection, encryption, 
traffic forwarding, and security 
enforcement locally, which results 
in optimized traffic flows, radically 
reduced latency, and massive 
scalability.
