Ethernet Based “Agent”
SNC24 Network Management
• Simple Remote Deployment– Plug in Power and RJ-45– Access Points and Mobile Units Auto-Discovered – Configure Access Points Remotely– No equipment staging and configuring required
• No IP address needs to be pre-assigned
Ethernet Based Agent
Plug in Locally
INTERNET
Configure and ManageRemotely
• Auto-Detect– Any change to the wireless network
• New Access Point
• Deleted Access Point
• Changed IP Address
• Change in Settings
– Alerts for any unauthorized modifications
Ethernet Based Agent
• Performance Warnings– Proactively identify possible failure conditions– Set thresholds for desired network performance
parameters– An Alert is generated for any network
performance that falls outside threshold– E-Mail or Page IS staff
Ethernet Based Agent
Ethernet Based Agent
• Secure Administration – SNC24 agent required on every network
segment to be managed– Uses Windows NT “challenge/response” to
verify the security ID of the administration station prior to allowing it access to the segment
• Built in Redundancy– Primary Agent– Secondary Agent– Run Agents on different PCs for hardware
redundancy– Secondary agent takes over with complete
functionality until Primary comes back on line.
Ethernet Based Agent
Profiles
SNC24 Network Management
• Automated Deployment– Pre-define multiple profiles – Reserve an IP Address List per Profile– Configure simply by applying a Profile to the
access point when it is plugged in– Define a “Default” profile
• Automatically assigned to any access point not otherwise defined
Profiles
Defau
lt
• Proactive Maintenance– Once a profile is assigned to an access point it
is “associated” to that Access Point by its MAC address
– If a Profile gets dropped, it is automatically re-instated by the SNC24 agent
– If an Access Point’s settings inadvertently get changed, they will automatically reset to desired profile.
Profiles
• Access Control– Prevent unwanted mobile devices from
connecting to the wireless network– Identify the MAC addresses of the mobile
devices you wish to allow to connect
Profiles
• Agent issues Challenge/Response to ensure Network Administration is authenticated
• Mobile unit access control can be defined by MAC address
• Alerts for Unauthorized Activity – Administrator attempting to modify the network – Attempts by mobile units to access the network– Addition or removal of an Access Point
• Automated Profile re-assignment in the event of any unauthorized modifications
Security Summary
ASP
SERVER
1) The server sends an XML request to the remote workstation.
2) The remote workstation sends a “Get” request to the server.
4) The remote LAN can be managed locally, or by the service provider across the Internet
3) The server transmits the SNC24 service to the remote location.
