Wec8500/Wec8050 (Apc) Operation Manual V10.1 - Samsung WEC8500 Operation Manual

W-EP AP (W-EP Wireless LAN AP)
The W-EP wireless LAN AP is a device that provides wireless connection service to a
user terminal. It should be installed by considering the service area or region that will be
provided in an enterprise environment. Typically, the number of W-EP wireless LAN APs
is determined by considering the size of installation area and the number of users to secure
service coverage.
Ethernet Switch
Typically, because an AP is installed in a user area, use a Power over Ethernet (PoE)
switch that does not use a power line for the beauties of environment, and so on. Install
the W-EP wireless LAN APs by considering current consumption and the power capacity
PoE switch. In addition, because power drop may occur if the distance between the switch
and W-EP wireless LAN AP, the relationship between distance and power must be
considered. Typically, the distance between these two must be 100 m or less in order to
avoid power drop.
Wireless terminal/FMC Client
Terminal that provides the 802.11a/b/g/n interface such as smart phone, tablet PC, or
notebook computer, and so on. In an Android smart phone, an enterprise Voice over IP
(VoIP) application equipped with the Samsung voice engine is called a FMC client (The
FMC client is an option).
Wireless additional service
In the W-EP environment, various application services are required as well as basic
wireless connection services.
The Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (WIPS) provides a security service that is one
of the most important elements in an enterprise environment. The WIPS can seamlessly
receive wireless connection service through the security services such as unauthorized
terminal, unauthorized AP, or ad hoc connection blocking, and so on.
Location service that manages the location of a terminal in a wireless environment is also
an application service required in an enterprise environment. With this, it is possible to
manage the location of an effective user or an unauthorized user.
IP application service
The IP application servers required in an existing wire network including Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, DNS server, web server, or RADIUS authentication
server are also used in the W-EP environment. Especially, the DHCP server and RADIUS
authentication server play a critical role in the wireless environment.
WIPS Solution
It monitors the properness of the implementation of the wireless network infrastructure by
detecting penetration via unauthorized wireless equipment installed in the internal network,
the detoured gateway segment of the internal officers and employees who illegally connect
to the commercial WLAN service, and so on, and provides the wireless network invasion
detection which implements the safe and effective wireless network environment by
detecting security vulnerabilities.
