Overview
|
|
|
Availability: Summer 2006. The ProCurve Access Point 530 is an intelligent edge, dual-radio access point with simultaneous support for 802.11a and 802.11g standards, as well as dual 802.11g radio operation. The 530 access point offers a comprehensive range of industry-proven user authentication methods and the latest in standards-based wireless security to assure appropriate and secure access to network resources. With built-in support for ProCurve Identity Driven Manager, the ProCurve Access Point 530 enables network administrators to reduce network operating costs by deploying a unified network that offers centralized wired and wireless network policy and device management.
Features
|
|
|
| • |
Choice of IEEE 802.11i, Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2), or WPA: locks out unauthorized wireless access by authenticating users prior to granting network access; robust Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) or Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) encryption secures the data integrity of the wireless traffic |
| • |
ProCurve Identity Driven Manager (IDM) security and access control: Per-user ACLs - permit or deny user access to specific network resources based on user identity and time of day, allowing multiple types of users (employees, visitors, temporary workforce) on the same network to access specific network services without risk to network security or unauthorized access to sensitive data; Automatic VLAN assignment - automatically assigns users to the appropriate VLAN based on their identity, community, and time of day; Rate limits - automatically applies ingress rate limits to user traffic based on identity, community, and time of day |
| • |
IEEE 802.1X: provides port-based user authentication with support for Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), TLS, TTLS, SIM, GTC, and PEAP, with choice of AES, TKIP, and static or dynamic WEP encryption for protecting wireless traffic between authenticated clients and the access point |
| • |
Neighbor access point (rogue AP) and ad-hoc wireless network detection: Periodic scanning is provided for neighboring access points and ad-hoc wireless networks. Information collected during the scan, including BSSID, SSID, channel, RSSI, security setting, and radio type 802.11a mode are captured for each wireless device detected. If configured, the access point can enter dedicated scan mode to provide continuous scanning of the surrounding RF environment. |
| • |
Up to 16 BSSIDs per radio with separate VLAN, security, and authentication: permits network administrators to control user access to network resources based on user authentication and level of trusted security between the client and access point |
| • |
Advanced dual-radio design: Simultaneous 802.11a and 802.11g radio operation - supports dual-band wireless clients and provides backward compatibility for IEEE 802.11b wireless devices; Dual IEEE 802.11b/g radio operation - provides high-capacity IEEE 802.11b/g data and voice wireless LAN coverage in networks where support for IEEE 802.11a is not a requirement |
| • |
Antenna flexibility accommodates a wide range of wireless LAN deployments: Per-radio integrated diversity antenna with omnidirectional coverage - provides robust, dual-radio wireless LAN coverage for open office environments; Per-radio external diversity antenna support: enables external antenna configurations to extend wireless coverage or wireless bridging between access points |
| • |
Wireless Distribution System (WDS): Wireless bridging - because it expands network connectivity to remote access points located beyond a network's wired infrastructure, wireless bridging is ideal for increasing wireless coverage to adjacent buildings, across large lecture halls, or to outdoor campus environments. Each ProCurve Access Point 530 can support up to six wireless links to remote access points. WPA-PSK encryption secures data on each wireless link. Wireless distribution is supported on 802.11a, b, and g radio modes of operation; Single-radio operation - a wireless link is provided to each remote ProCurve Access Point 530; it also services local wireless clients; Dual-radio operation - one radio provides a wireless link to each remote ProCurve Access Point 530. The second radio provides network connectivity to local wireless clients. |
| • |
IEEE 802.11h International Telecommunication Union (ITU) compliant: employs Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) and Transmit Power Control (TCP) to automatically select another channel and adjust transmit power to minimize interference with systems such as radar, if detected on that same channel |
| • |
International country configuration: select the appropriate country, and the access point will automatically configure operation to match regulatory requirements |
| • |
Wi-Fi WMM support: provides QoS functionality in wireless networks by prioritizing wireless traffic from different applications |
| • |
SpectraLink voice priority (SVP) support: prioritizes SpectraLink voice IP packets sent from a SpectraLink NetLink SVP server to SpectraLink wireless voice handsets to help ensure excellent voice quality |
| • |
Remote configuration and management: through secure Web browser or command-line interface (CLI) |
| • |
RADIUS accounting support: separate RADIUS accounting server support per BSSID provides detailed session, usage, and billing information for each client activity |
| • |
Multiple configuration files: multiple config files can be stored to flash image |
| • |
SCP (Secure Copy Protocol): allows secure file transfer to/from the access point; protects against unwanted file downloads or unauthorized copying of switch configuration file |
| • |
Network management: ProCurve Identity Driven Manager (IDM) - this software extends the functionality of ProCurve Manager Plus to include authorization control features for the ProCurve Access Point 530 and ProCurve switches using RADIUS servers and MAC authentication or IEEE 802.1X security protocols. IDM provides the ability to create and assign access rights, quality of service, and VLAN enrollment that is dynamically associated with a user and applied at the point of entry or "edge" of the network; ProCurve Mobility Manager 1.0 - this software provides a simple yet powerful management tool to centrally configure, update, monitor, and troubleshoot ProCurve APs, such as the ProCurve Access Point 530. It expands the capabilities of ProCurve Manager Plus to address mobility-specific device management. Advanced capabilities include rogue device detection, group-based configuration and firmware updates, monitoring wireless client association activity, and e-mail/pager alerts. |
