The P-360 HiaB Access Point can work in different operation modes:
•
Access point mode (AP)
•
Access Point-Router mode (AP-Router)
Difference to P-320
The P-360 WLAN AP is designed to cooperate with G-6000/G-4000 hot-spot gateways. As opposed
to P-320 (Wi-Fi Operator Access Point) the P-360 does incorporate routing and the Universal Access.
However, P-360 can be configured as a 802.1x authenticator. In this setup the G-6000/G-4000
gateway will act as a RADIUS-Proxy and controls the traffic flow. Only when 802.1x authentication
chain is successfully finished the gateway will allow Internet access.
P-360 is also called "A Hot-spot in a box", because it incorporates all necessary AAA features for
single-cell hot-spots. P-360 typically works as a router, whereas P-320 is used as a layer2 bridge
between wireless clients and an Ethernet backbone.
P-320 and P-360 share one hardware platform incl. housing. However it is not possible for users to
upgrade from P-320 to P-360 by software (or vice versa).
