Wireless network

The market's most modern WiFi technology

Netsecurity delivers wireless networks based on the market's most modern WiFi technology - ExtremeWireless Cloud, which is Extreme Networks' cloud-based WLAN solution. This is a distributed WLAN solution that is managed entirely in ExtremeCloud IQ (XiQ).

Distributed means that the solution does not use one (or more) dedicated WLAN controllers, but that the controller function is distributed to each individual access point, which together perform the controller function. These communicate with each other and are able to perform RF checks, client roaming and authentication without communicating with the cloud. This means that the network will function uninterrupted even if access to the cloud is disrupted.

Cloud-based WLAN

A distributed, cloud-based solution for WLAN has a number of advantages:

No major investments in WLAN controllers, which must be replaced at regular intervals.

The absence of WLAN controllers means fewer management points and reduced data traffic in the network.

Continuous access to new functionality within the same license level.

Automatic software upgrade that does not affect WLAN availability

“Unlimited” scalability

Predictable costs

Possibility of rolling upgrades

Benefits of Extreme Cloud IQ WLAN

ExtremeWireless Cloud consists of a portfolio of indoor and outdoor access points that cover all needs, whether there is low or high user density.
Simple Zero Touch positioning of devices at locations that do not require technical expertise. Pure plug-and-play technology that saves time and technical resources.
Simple integration with a third-party RADIUS server (NAC)
The solution supports industry standards for authentication and authorization, including pre-shared keying, WPA v2/3 PSK, WPA v2/3 Enterprise with 802.1x, MAC-based authentication, registration, and (captive) portals.
Bring your own device (BYOD) gets encrypted data traffic over a regular GRE tunnel with IPsec built into XiQ technology with individual PPSK over Private Client Group (PCG).
Secure and scalable onboarding of all types of users and devices with individual keys (Private Pre-Shared Keys – PPSK).
Support for micro-segmentation with division into small (or large) groups (Private Client Group - PCG).
- Provides extra security when handling a large number of unauthorized devices and protects individual users (defined as single user, school class, team, etc.) by ensuring that devices cannot see each other.
Sharing of PPSK takes place via the built-in SMS gateway in XiQ (no additional costs for SMS GW) or via email.
- Complete management solution with logging and analysis tools
