***AirMagnet and Wavelink Partner to Integrate Wireless LAN
Management Solutions
KIRKLAND, Wash. & SUNNYVALE, Calif.
April 26, 2004
Wavelink Corporation and AirMagnet, Inc announced a partnership
to integrate their wireless LAN solutions. Through the
partnership, AirMagnet's Mobile and Distributed security and
performance management systems will interoperate with Wavelink
Mobile Manager. The combination of AirMagnet's ongoing Wi-Fi
security and performance monitoring with Wavelink's network and
mobile device management strengths will provide a solution to
simplify the end-to-end management of the entire WLAN lifecycle.
The integrated Wavelink and AirMagnet product combines two
components for a wireless LAN. This includes security and
performance monitoring and troubleshooting from AirMagnet and
performance and security management from Wavelink. When AirMagnet
sensors locate two or more access points overlapping on the same
channel (causing interference and poor quality), IT
administrators can resolve the issue by using Wavelink Mobile
Manager to adjust the channel and/or power settings.
Further this product will include:
-- Integrated Monitoring. AirMagnet alerts will be incorporated
into Mobile Manager's alarm browser and reporting capability in
order to act upon possible security or performance problems
detected by AirMagnet sensors.
-- Integrated Security. AirMagnet's advanced "rogue device"
detection integrates with Mobile Manager to identify and take
action on unauthorized devices discovered on corporate WLANs.
-- Integrated Site Survey. AirMagnet site survey tools will
integrate with Wavelink Mobile Manager -- configurations and
settings from AirMagnet's products will import to Mobile Manager
to be applied automatically across wireless networks.
Products that combine features from AirMagnet and Wavelink are
available now.
