      1eWEEK Labs Walk-Through: Bandspeed AirMaestro

      1

      by Andrew Garcia

      2AirMaestro 3100AG

      2

      Bandspeed’s access point has three radios, allowing businesses to utilize the 2.4GHz and 5GHz band simultaneously and provide always-on Wi-Fi monitoring services.

      3Connections

      3

      Because Bandspeed’s APs do not yet support 802.11n, the 3100AG only offers a pair of 10/100 Ethernet ports (1 with PoE).

      4Management Console

      4

      The AirMaestro WLAN Management Console gives administrators a centralized view of the WLAN network, its potential sources of interference and identified rogue devices.

      AirMaestro APs further detail detected interferers and rogues, allowing administrators to conduct over-the-air mitigation if desired.

      6Create a Network

      6

      From the Management Console, administrators can easily create data or voice networks, assign security parameters, and deploy settings to the intended access points.

      7Cluster Management

      7

      Administrators can add or remove APs from the managed cluster either via the Console (shown) or through any access point’s Web-based GUI.

      8Spectrum Analysis

      8

      Bandspeed’s APs can be used to identify non-Wi-Fi sources of radio interference in the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, identifying detected microwave ovens or cordless phones.

      9AP GUI

      9

      Bandspeed utilizes a controllerless architecture, and unfortunately, APs must be configured individually for some things.

      10Granular Controls

      10

      When managing APs individually via each device’s GUI, administrators have access to more in-depth controls over Wi-Fi and QOS behaviors.
