  11. PLANNING AND DESIGNING

  12. Planning with EWS Planning with EWS is simple by using the visual monitoring method. With the ability of combining the topology with floor view it enhances the usage of applying diagram to indicate the location of the Access Points.

  13. Planning with EWS • Web Interfaces Using the floor View, images of layout can be imported and allow the indication of the position of the Access Point

  14. Planning with EWS Using the Map View which uses google map, it allows ease of Outdoor application. Access Point can be emplace to indicate the position. Default location of map is Taiwan until the EWS is able to get a gateway to the internet to set its actual location at site.

  15. Manage APs with Ease: Cluster Management Cluster A Cluster B The system can group a variety of wireless settings into single repository so users can just assign this collection of settings to specific AP upon discovery. It will save time on tedious repeated configuration steps on individual settings and allows for fast deployment.

  16.

  17. Power Budget planning Initial setup using Power Budget to calculate the number of Access Point which is link the to EWS Wireless Management Switch

  18. EWS310AP EWS310AP EWS310AP EWS310AP EWS310AP EWS310AP Scaling number of Access Point to EWS switch Multi tier scaling of Access Point is still manageable with the EWS wireless management switch EWS7928P / EWS5912FP / EWS7952FP / EWS7928FP EGS7228P / EGS5212FPPoE+ Layer 2 Switch AP EGS5110P / EGS2110P / EGS2108PPoE Smart Switch AP AP AP AP AP Power + Data Connection Data Connection AP

  20. Fast Handover Behavior of any wireless Client - Once it is associated to the 1st AP, it will “STUCK” to it unless it disconnect itself. RSSI level can be set to facilitate wireless clients to handover to adjacent AP(s) with better signal. This feature can assist to maintain the best available signal quality across multiple AP within the wireless network. RSSI: <(-70dBm) RSSI: -60dBm

  21. Site Survey – Indoor Site Survey Tools - InSSider First step to site survey using InSSider to conduct surround scan to check what channels have been used before implementing fast handover or any implementation of POC. NOTE: If the 2.4GHz radio is set to “Auto”, it will scan in sequence of 1,6,11 While for 5GHz, it will scan all available channels depends on the country domain that you set.

  22. Site Survey for Fast Handover Step 1: Set one AP at RSSI at -70dBm. Start walking from the AP. Using InSSider to scan the AP coverage beyond the preset -70 dBmeg. -75dBm AP1 AP1 -75dbm RSSI set at: -70dBm

  23. Site Survey for Fast Handover Step 2: Setting up 2nd Access Point to determine the coverage for the 2nd AP with overlap at preset Fast Handover setting AP1 -75dbm AP1 AP2 AP2 -75dbm RSSI: -70dBm RSSI: -70dBm

  24. Site Survey for Fast Handover Step 3: Using a portable device, moving from AP 1 to AP 2 browsing of internet and video streaming should gives a smooth transition with no lag on image. NOTE: To verify the site survey, please use a Smart phone (with InSSider APPS). AP1 -60dbm AP1 -75dbm AP1 AP2 AP2 -60dbm AP2 -75dbm RSSI: -70dBm RSSI: -70dBm Overlapping Zone RSSI:-70dBm

  25. Fast Roaming With fast roaming, a full authentication method is required to establish the initial client connection, after which the fast roaming technique can subsequently be used when roaming between APs to minimize perceptible delay during re-association (by distributing and caching PMKSA on neighbor APs). The techniques optimizes latency-sensitive applications such as wireless voice over IP (VoIP).

  26. Fast Roaming This Method of Needs a RADIUS Server to facilitate the authentication. NOTE: Fast Roaming only works with Encryption WPA/WPA2 Enterprise and above.

  27. High Density Wireless Network Using EWS to control wireless Access Point in High Density area such as Auditorium with 320 seats by using Band Steering, Client limitation and traffic shaping. Distributing maximum 54 wireless client to each AP Calculations: • Total Bandwidth : 20M • No. of AP : 6 • Bandwidth allocated per AP: 3MB • Client allocated per AP: 54 • Client allocated per radio band: 27

  28. Traffic Shaping Traffic shaping allows you to limit the upload and download speed at the AP’s LAN port and also speed allocated to each RADIO bands. 2.4GHz 5GHz Upload Download

  29. Traffic Shaping Using Traffic shaping to control the bandwidth of the Access Point in the cluster to allow even distribution of the allowable bandwidth. Recommendation: You may want to limit upload speed.

  30. Traffic Shaping Coordinating with the EWS is the L2 function which you fixed the bandwidth for the individual port to make sure that each port is using the same bandwidth.

  31. Client Limit Setting Client limit to control the number of user connecting to the Access Point. NOTE: The more client you set each band, the lesser bandwidth is given to each client. For Email, Twitter, Facebook and Normal internet browsing is 256 kbps.

  32. Maximum Concurrent Client To allow better control per AP traffic and loading, it is crucial to allocate and distribute the bandwidth EWS310AP Up to 60 clients **30 per band EWS320AP Up to 80 clients **40 per band

  33. Band Steering Band steering steers the 5GHz-compatible clients to 5GHz band by responding only to the 5GHz association requests and not the 2.4 GHz requests. It helps to leave more bandwidth for 2.4GHz devices operating in 2.4GHz band.

  34. Band Steering Using Band Steering to load balance the number of the wireless client connecting to the Access Point by identifying the 5Ghz user to automatically connect to the Access Point via 5Ghz and off loading the 2.4Ghz band. NOTE: In order for the Band steering to work, both radio have to be set with SAME SSID and encryption.

  35. Band Steering By checking the Active Client Table below, you would be able to identify the which client is associated to each radio band.

  36. AP status Monitoring During Planning the EWS provide detail visual monitoring of the Access Point. By Analyzing these statistic you will be able to understand the usage pattern and do Load Balancing. You may standby additional AP to cater for peak hours. Meeting Room E seems to have high traffic Further detail analysis can be deduce from the number clients and the total throughput used

  37. Wireless Client Monitoring During POC testing monitoring usage of wireless client connecting to the EWS Access Point. This Client may be HOGGING the AP??

  38. Wireless Client Monitoring EWS actual throughput of the Access Point during usage.

  39. DEPLOYMENT

  40. Easy Setup, Easy Management 3 Simple Steps to Get Started! 1 2 3 Connect: Plug the EWS AP(s) to the EWS Switch. Select: Log into Web UI, tick AP(s) to manage from the “AP(s) Detected” list and click “Add”. Assign IP: Select “DHCP” for auto IP address assignment or fill in a range of IP address if you wish to set IP manually then click “Apply”.

  41. Bulk Firmware upgrade Upgrade firmware for connected APs: Single or multiple units to save time repeating the process over and over again. Once you uploaded the firmware to the switch, it will detect and list out the AP that belong to this firmware. NOTE: Please ensure your EWS switch and AP is already upgraded to the latest firmware version. Always upgrade EWS switch then follow by the APs.

  42. User Friendly GUI Pre-configuration Use the Controller/Switch tab on the upper left corner to toggle between the Wireless Controller or Layer 2 Switch functions. At the top right corner of the Graphical User Interface (GUI) is the search bar which you can use to find and jump to any of the Switch or Controller management features. When you type in a word, all possible results for that word in the navigation pane will appear. Click on the results from the drop down list to open that management tab. The Dashboard on the upper right corner of the GUI shows the current status of Neutron Series APs that has been managed by the Neutron Series Switch.

  43. Pre-configuration The EWS Switch Series had the ability to detect the AP through MAC address. For provisioning of the AP, click the check box and add the AP to the EWS switch management list. A pop out box indicating IP Assignment to assign the IP addresses to the selected EWS AP. DHCP server will be needed for the auto IP assign to the AP Static IP address can be configure on the manual IP address assign to the AP

  44. Pre-configuration Displays status of managed Access Points including Device Name, MAC Address, IP Address, Tags, Last Updated Time, Cluster Group. Users can show/hide fields, and also can arrange the list into ascending/descending order. By clicking on the Device Name or Cluster Group, users will be redirected to the relevant device setup page. Also present is a Search box which can be used to search for the Status, Name, MAC, IP, Tag, Cluster of all managed devices. Much more time saving than browsing the whole list one by one.

  47. Create Cluster Before pre-configuration you should already design how you will cluster the APs so you can PUSH the settings to each CLUSTER. You may vary settings based on AREA, FLOOR, LOCATION or BUILDING. This will help you better maintain and locate your Clusters. Input more details in the Description of the Clusters to help you better differentiate and manage them Name Clusters based on floor, area, location or Building

  48. Overriding a Cluster You may need to override certain parameters in the process of pre-configuration or during maintenance due to dynamic environment. Overriding changes on individual Access Point can be made on 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz wireless mode, Channel HT Mode, Extension Channel, Channel, Transmit Power, Client Limit and Data Rate.

  49. Visualized Topology View Verifying Deployment using Topology view Once All Aps is configured and deployed, it is recommended that we should evaluate the Network configuration again in the TOPOLOGY VIEW to ensure accuracy.

  50. Visualized Topology View Installation – Wall Mount NOTE: Please ensure the device is locked properly to the bracket.
