This use case evaluates the vendor's WLAN management capability. Each vendor was asked to satisfy these

requirements:

• Create a single mobility domain for the previously designed network.

• Configure Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2), 802.1X, Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), and

SSID=Burton for this network.

• Configure APs for both the 2.4 GHz and the 5 GHz bands.

• Configure guest access with captive portal and with WPA2/802.1X security.

• Configure load balancing and band steering, if supported.

• Configure auto-power and auto-channel assignments, if supported.

Each vendor was evaluated according to these criteria:

• Does the network-management system provide site-based and/or device-based navigation? Site-based

navigation allows the administrator to organize the network according to location (e.g., country, city, building,

and floor). Device-based navigation allows the administrator to organize the network according to a list of

devices. Administrators that manage large enterprise networks need both methods of navigation.

• Does the system provide load balancing and/or band steering? Load balancing can improve aggregate network

performance by making best use of channel resources. Band steering ensures that

all

the 802.11n clients show

preference to the most appropriate band.

• Does the system provide an airtime fairness (ATF) algorithm? ATF is a mechanism that controls how an AP

allocates airtime for stations in relation to each other. ATF mechanisms take into consideration many

parameters such as device type (e.g., 802.11b) and station-modulation rate. Refer to the overview “

Demystifying Radio Management” for more information on ATF.

Table 2 summarizes the manage use-case results. Refer to the “Network Management” section of this assessment

for an analysis of the management use-case results.
