Data sheet | HP MSM Controller Series
• Remote configuration and management
Are available through a secure Web browser, command-line interface (console port or SSH),
SOAP, or SNMP
• Management interface control
Allows interfaces to be enabled or disabled depending on security preferences
• Management VLAN
Segments traffic to and from management interfaces, including CLI, Web browser interface,
and SNMP
• RADIUS accounting support
Separates RADIUS accounting server support per SSID; and provides detailed session, usage,
and billing information for each client activity
• Logging
Provides local and remote logging of events via SNMP (v2c and v3) and syslog; and provides
log throttling and log filtering to reduce the number of log events generated
• Controller networking
Includes IEEE 802.1D-compliant bridging and bridge MIB (RFC 4188), which is supported only
on a primary bridge interface; stateful firewall; PPPoE client (RFC 2516); ICMP (RFC 792);
IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging; NAT (RFC 1631); CIDR (RFC 1519); L2TP and PPTP servers for
wireless clients; VPN client, which establishes PPTP or IPSec tunnels to other devices; and
IGMP snooping (IGMP proxy v1 and v2), which is supported on the wireless interfaces of APs
• DHCP support
Includes RFC 2131 and RFC 3046 (DHCP relay option 82) for server and built-in DHCP client
for client
• Band steering
Redirects 5 GHz-capable clients automatically to the less-congested 5 GHz spectrum
• Controller management
Provides a secure Web browser (Secure Sockets Layer [SSL] and VPN), command-line interface,
SOAP, SNMP v2c and v3, MIB-II with traps, RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC 2618), and
RIPv2 MIB extension (RFC 1724); implements scheduled configuration and firmware upgrades
from a central server; offers per-user activity records by time used or data transferred; and
supports remote syslog
• HP Intelligent Management Center (IMC) and Wireless Services Manager Software
Provide centralized management for discovery, logging, status, and configuration management
• Unified network visibility
Provides visibility between a wired and wireless network, using the IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer
Discovery Protocol (LLDP) and sFlow
• Diagnostics
Records association, authentication, and DHCP events in client event log; includes a packet
capture tool for Ethernet and IEEE 802.11 interfaces (PCAP format), a wireless client data rate
matrix, and a client status page; complete session logging provides detailed information for
problem identification and resolution
