AP Management Concept
AP Management feature is designed not only for internal network AP deployment, but also overlay deployment at
remote locations over the cloud.
WHG Controllers can manage from 30 to 500 LevelOne Access Points depending on model. For overlay AP
deployment, WHG Controllers establish a secure tunnel between the managed AP and Controller.
Certain AP models with additional Ethernet ports can also provide wired network service. When managed remotely
over the internet, the APs wired user traffic can be forwarded into the internet without having to be tunneled back
and centrally forwarded by the AC. This feature is an example of Distributed Traffic Forwarding (DTF).
