Features
Device Profiling
Provides the functionality in discovering and
determining the capabilities of all the attached
endpoints on your network, regardless of their
device types, to ensure and maintain appropriate
access to your network. It primarily collects an
attribute or a set of attributes of all the endpoints
on network and classifies them according to their
profiles.

Local Auth
Local auth is an authentication method that allows
users and wireless clients to be authenticated
locally on the switch/controller. It is designed for
use in remote offices that want to maintain
connectivity to wireless clients when the backend
system becomes disrupted or the external
authentication server goes down.

Internal DHCP Server
The controllers contain an internal DHCP server.
This server is typically used in branch offices that
do not already have a DHCP server. The internal
server provides DHCP addresses to wireless
clients.

Web GUI
A web browser, or graphical user interface (GUI),
is built into each controller. It allows multiple
users to simultaneously browse into the controller
HTTP or HTTPS (HTTP over SSL) management
pages to configure parameters and monitor the
operational status for the controller and its
associated access points.

Fast Heart beat
Allows you to enable the fast heartbeat timer and
reduce the amount of time it takes to detect a
controller failure for all access points.

AP Fall back
Unlike Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP)
standby, AP fallback disrupts wireless service
while the AP failsover and then falls back to the
configured (primary/secondary/tertiary)
controller.
