RangeLAN2 Manager
Specifications
RangeLAN2 Manager is a free feature on our 7520 and 7530 access
points.
Simplify Management of your Wireless Network
Proxim RangeLAN2 Manager is the first management tool for wireless local area
networks (LANs) that takes advantage of the simplicity and ubiquity of the web browser.
Using a familiar interface already on your desktop, virtually eliminates installation and
learning curve, a refreshing alternative to implementing a complex and expensive
management package. Using RangeLAN2 Manager software, network managers can install,
configure, monitor and troubleshoot their wireless LAN from anywhere on the network with
an easy-to-navigate, user-friendly interface that utilizes their standard web browser.
Configure and Manage Your Entire Network
RangeLAN2 Manager automatically discovers all RangeLAN2 or WLI Forum-compatible devices.
This includes not only access points, but mobile devices like scanners, pen tablets or
laptops with RangeLAN2 or WLIF-compatible wireless adapters. In addition to viewing the
entire wireless network, you can also configure and perform software updates on selected
or all access points simply and easily. From one tool, change radio parameters like
domain, channel, security ID, filter settings and many other key wireless parameters, all
without leaving your desk.
Ease Troubleshooting through Real-Time Traffic Monitoring
With the Proxim RangeLAN2 Manager, you can easily view network traffic for any access
point in your system. With a graphical, dynamically updated chart of current transmit and
receive radio traffic, you can quickly spot unusual loading conditions affecting the
performance of your network. Statistics for radio, bridge, Ethernet and other wireless
parameters are also available to give you all the information you need.
