AirWave Wireless Selected to Manage Wi-Fi Networks at Ten Leading Universities

Software Developer Emerges as Wireless Network Management Leader in the Higher Education Marketplace

SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 15, 2004--AirWave Wireless, a leading wireless network management software developer, today announced that ten of the nation's leading universities have selected the AirWave Management Platform(TM) (AMP) software to monitor, analyze, and configure their rapidly growing Wi-Fi networks. The newly announced customers include Yale University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Indiana University, Vanderbilt University, the University of Miami, Stanford University Law School, the University of Oregon, University of California Hastings College of the Law, California State University at Monterey Bay, and the University of Dayton.
Universities are challenged with managing vast networks spanning dozens of buildings and supporting thousands of users. AMP's web-based management console and scalable architecture give administrators full control over thousands of network devices enabling a small existing staff to cost-effectively manage wireless networks in distributed campus sites. AMP even allows administrators to temporarily shut down the wireless network at specified times, such as during final exams, when wireless access is not desirable.

Network downtime, dead zones and security risks are unacceptable," said Nasri Mukhar, Network Specialist for the University of Miami. "With AirWave Wireless we ensure our network performs optimally so that our students, staff and faculty have the best user experience possible."

Bond Investment Toledo Toledo Like many large institutions, universities often have heterogeneous, multi-vendor networks resulting from decentralized departmental purchasing processes and lengthy deployment cycles. AMP provides network administrators with a single point of intelligent control from which to monitor, analyze and configure these networks in real time, supporting Wi-Fi vendors such as Avaya, Cisco, Colubris, Enterasys, HP ProCurve, Proxim, and Symbol.

Short for "Wireless Fidelity", WiFi is a networking standard, which allows for wireless internet access and data downloading. frequency radio signals, and is only available when within range of a hotspot. WiFi technology is based on the 802.11 family of networking standards, and uses a radio frequency of 2.4 GHz. These technical specifications were developed by the Wireless Ethernet Compatibility Alliance (WECA), which is still responsible for certifying new WiFi hardware products as being compatible with the standard.

James Bond Trading Card In a network environment where thousands of users have full access to the network and can easily connect unsecured Wi-Fi devices, AMP provides universities unparalleled security through the integrated RAPIDS rogue AP detection module that automatically detects unauthorized access points via a combination of RF scanning and "fingerprinting" over the wired network. The platform also monitors each user and alerts IT staff if any user is consuming disproportionately high bandwidth.

Fi ( fi, WiFi, Wifi, wifi), short for "Wireless Fidelity", is a set of product compatibility standards for wireless local area networks (WLAN) based on the IEEE 802.11 specifications. New standards beyond the 802.11 specifications, such as 802.16(WiMAX), are currently in the works and offer many enhancements, anywhere from longer range to greater transfer speeds. Fi was intended to be used for mobile devices and LANs, but is now often used for Internet access. enabled computer or personal digital assistant (PDA) to connect to the Internet when in proximity of an access point.

Bond In Investing Stock "Colleges and universities are among the earliest and most aggressive adopters of wireless LAN technology, demonstrating the need for managing some of the largest and most complex RF networks," said AirWave CEO Gary Hegna. "AirWave's selection by these leading institutions further demonstrates the importance of wireless network management in order to deliver superior network performance and flexibility while reducing support costs and enforcing security policies."

New on the market are routers for wireless and phoneline networks. These routers act as both bridges and routers. If you have a wireless network, the router has antennas to manage data to and from the wireless network (the LAN) cable modem.
