Technology

Key Benefit

Controller-less WLAN Architecture

Provides enterprise-grade Wi-Fi without the additional hardware expense of a controller

Identity-based Policy Enforcement at the Edge

Ensures enforcement of QoS, access control, and security policies at the access point – allowing traffic to be controlled right when it enters the network

Authentication with Private Pre-Shared Key

Provides a way to identify individual users on a single SSID, so each can be granted different user profiles

High Availability and Mesh Network Redundancy

Creates redundant paths between access points, enabling the WLAN to route around wired network failures – thereby ensuring there is no single point of failure within the wireless or the wired infrastructure

Client Health Score

Offers easy “at-a-glance” visibility into the status or “health” of clients connected to the Wi-Fi network

Dynamic Airtime Scheduling

Allocates airtime instead of bandwidth to each individual user, user type, and user queue – with a preference given to higher priority clients

Wi-Fi Service Level Assurance

Provides network administrators unprecedented levels of Wi-Fi visibility and determinism by monitoring every client’s capabilities, throughput, airtime use, and Client Health Score
Spectrum Analysis

Detects interference from non-Wi-Fi radio devices and no additional hardware or licenses are required to use this feature

Cloud Proxy

Automatically diverts Internet-bound traffic through cloud-based web security service, to reduces bandwidth cost and deliver higher security.
IP Address Management

Enables administrator to provision access to remote networks automatically by simply designating subnetwork size and number of branches.

Cloud Platform

Cloud platform collocated in tier-1, SAS70 type II certified state of the art datacenters allowing Aerohive services to be delivered on-demand globally.
Redirector Instantly enables zero-touch provisioning of Aerohive devices from anywhere in the world.
