RingMaster™ (RM™) 
An award-winning, full-featured client server application, RingMaster™ from Trapeze Networks enables IT 
organizations to perform pre- and post deployment planning, configuration, and monitoring, of the Trapeze 
Mobility System™ wireless LAN infrastructure as well as create detailed reports. 
 
RingMaster™ provides live or off-line changes and gives the 
user the power to deploy or roll back configurations 
atomically across the entire network, on demand, in a few 
clicks of a mouse. Ringmaster features a Wizard-based 
Virtual Site Survey™ and automated capacity planning tools 
greatly simplify the RF planning stage, no RF expertise is 
required. AutoCAD DXF™, AutoCAD DWG, JPEG or GIF floor 
plan files may all be imported to design wireless LANs offline. 
RingMaster includes a library of radio frequency (RF) 
attenuators defined for building obstacles, including many 
types of doors, walls, ceilings, and other physical obstructions. 
Custom RF obstacles may also be defined. RingMaster factors 
in the impact these objects have on how RF signals flow 
through a given facility. 
 
RingMaster automatically determines how many Trapeze 
Mobility Point™ (MP™) radios or Trapeze Open Access Point 
Initiative (OAPI) compliant 3rd Part Access Points need to be 
installed in any part of a building, taking into consideration the 
RF obstacles and, optionally, a capacity plan based on the 
number of users and their bandwidth demands. 
 
A detailed work order that shows exactly where to install 
Trapeze Mobility Points is created by the system and scores of 
Trapeze Mobility Exchange™ (MX™) switches and thousands 
of MPs are automatically configured in one step, including 
security policies, radio channel and power settings, and 
roaming profiles for users. RingMaster also provides automatic 
verification of any configuration updates, ensuring that network 
changes do not introduce errors. 
 
RingMaster greatly simplifies the operation of the wireless 
LAN. Stay air-aware with RF topology mapping and 
optimization; coverage hole mitigation, continuous, scheduled, 
or on-demand rogue detection; network wide event reporting, 
user monitoring, location awareness, and packet tracing; as 
well as complete RF management and monitoring of network 
usage patterns to protect against unwanted intrusions and 
denial of service (DoS) attacks RingMaster also detects, 
identifies, and locates rogue access points (APs), their users, 
DoS and probe attacks, as well as 802.11 ad hoc networks.  
In addition, RingMaster features server based user and 
network statistic collection. Graphical data displays include 
user sessions, network activity, RADIUS server and AAA 
activity as well as RF health and coverage. 
Time based reports on user and system-level events and statistics can be created for up to 30 day trends.
