Security Features of Wireless Access Points

The Cisco CBW145AC-B Wireless 867 Mbps Access Point is a high-performance access point designed to provide reliable and secure wireless connectivity to users. To ensure that the access point provides secure wireless connectivity, it is equipped with a range of security features. These features include:

• Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA): WPA is a wireless security protocol that provides strong encryption for wireless networks. The CBW145AC-B access point supports WPA and WPA2, ensuring that wireless communications are encrypted and secure.
• Secure Guest Access: The access point provides secure guest access, enabling visitors to access the wireless network without compromising the security of the corporate network. This feature allows administrators to control and manage access to the network.
• VLAN Tagging: VLAN tagging is a feature that allows network administrators to segment the wireless network into separate virtual LANs (VLANs). This enables network administrators to separate different types of traffic, improving security and network performance.
• MAC Address Filtering: The access point supports MAC address filtering, allowing network administrators to control access to the wireless network by restricting access to specific MAC addresses.
• Rogue AP Detection: The access point is equipped with rogue AP detection, enabling it to detect unauthorized access points on the network. This helps to ensure that the network remains secure and that unauthorized devices do not gain access to the network.
• Intrusion Prevention System (IPS): The access point includes an IPS, which can detect and prevent attacks on the network. This feature helps to ensure that the wireless network remains secure and free from attacks.
• Access Control Lists (ACLs): ACLs provide an additional layer of security by allowing network administrators to control traffic flow based on a set of predefined rules. This feature helps to ensure that only authorized traffic is allowed on the network.

Quality of Service and Traffic Management

The Cisco CBW145AC-B Wireless 867 Mbps Access Point provides Quality of Service (QoS) and Traffic Management features to prioritize and manage network traffic to ensure that users receive the best possible performance. These features help to maintain optimal network performance and ensure that critical applications and services receive priority over less important traffic.

QoS allows network administrators to prioritize traffic based on the importance of the application or service. This means that applications such as voice and video can be given a higher priority than other applications such as email or web browsing. This ensures that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth and that network performance remains consistent.

The Traffic Management feature allows administrators to manage network traffic by shaping, policing, or dropping traffic based on pre-defined rules. This helps to optimize network performance by ensuring that bandwidth is used efficiently, and that critical applications and services receive the necessary bandwidth to function correctly.

The Cisco CBW145AC-B Wireless 867 Mbps Access Point also supports other QoS features, such as 802.11e Wireless Multimedia Extensions (WME), which enables prioritization of traffic based on access category. The access point can also limit the number of clients that can connect to the network, ensuring that each client receives an appropriate level of service.

Furthermore, the access point can provide traffic management for wired devices connected to the network by implementing QoS policies on the wired LAN ports. This ensures that the wired devices receive the same level of service as the wireless devices.

High Availability and Redundancy Options

The Cisco CBW145AC-B Wireless 867 Mbps Access Point provides high availability and redundancy options to ensure that the wireless network remains operational even if there is a hardware failure or outage. These features help to minimize downtime and ensure that users have uninterrupted access to the network.

One high availability feature of the CBW145AC-B access point is load balancing, which distributes traffic across multiple access points to prevent any one access point from becoming overloaded. This helps to ensure that the network is running smoothly and that users have a seamless experience when accessing the network.

Another high availability feature is fast roaming, which enables devices to switch between access points quickly and seamlessly, without any interruption to the network connection. This is particularly useful in large organizations or public areas with high user density, where multiple access points are required to provide adequate coverage.

The CBW145AC-B access point also supports redundancy options, such as dual-antenna connectors and dual Gigabit Ethernet ports. Dual-antenna connectors enable the access point to use multiple antennas, which can help to improve network coverage and reduce the risk of signal interference. Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports enable the access point to connect to two separate switches, which provides a backup option if one switch fails or goes offline.

The access point also supports the Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS) and Cisco Wireless Services Module (WiSM), which provide centralized management and control of the wireless network. This enables network administrators to manage and monitor the network from a single location, which can help to simplify network management and reduce downtime.
