WLANs - The Power of One Network: Securing and Scaling the Wireless LAN
Overview First-generation Wireless LAN (WLAN) systems were all about basic standards, connectivity and end-user productivity. They did not address a number of key enterprise requirements. Second-generation WLAN systems are all about enhanced standards addressing security, Quality of Service (QoS), interoperability, enterprise-wide roaming and architected solutions with placement of functionality for optimal price, performance and control. This paper describes Nortel's second-generation secure WLAN architecture, which is centered on the networking element - the WLAN Security Switch. Deployment of second-generation WLAN solutions will lay the groundwork for third-generation WLANs, which will be highly integrated and include support for seamless roaming across public and private networks.
