Wireless LAN Solution Engine:
For Managing Autonomous AP’s

Components are WLSE and WLSE Express
WLSE
WLSE is a centralized solution for managing Cisco IOS-based (Standalone) APs

Auto-configuration of new AP’s
Configuration roll out and archive
Radio frequency (RF) Monitoring
Assisted Site Survey
Automated channel selection and power management
Detects unauthorized WLAN components, such as rogue access points and ad-hoc networks.
WLSE Express
Step down from the WLSE which is a centralized solution for managing Cisco IOS-based (Standalone) APs

WLSE Express is for
Small to medium office solution for up to 100 AP’s (with upgrade lics)
WAN
Wide Area Network
Covers a geographical area that is larger than a LAN, and can span states, provinces, countries, or even the world
Centralized WAN (Hub & Spoke) vs. Distributed WAN
WAN Designs
Leased Lines
Costly – Don’t Scale
Frame-Relay
Flexible Cost Effective
ATM
Distributed WAN
Distributed WAN also known as Enterprise WAN. If you have servers at each location, this is Distributed WAN.
WAN Designs: 3 types
Leased Lines
Costly – Don’t Scale
Frame-Relay
Flexible Cost Effective
ATM
Leased Lines are costly.
Frame Relay, more cost effective.
ATM popular for Voice and Video because of built in QoS.
WAN:
Explain Backbone and Edge
Backbone
Handles the major traffic
Employs highest speed transmission paths in network
Runs longest distance
Smaller networks are attached to the Backbone
Edge-
Part of network located on the periphery
Connective devices between component networks.
Product Components of a WAN:
Just distinguish these components. This is more from a Service Provider network point of view.

Routers (Edge and Backbone)
Optimal path network traffic is to forwarded

WAN Switch (ISP Backbone) High End
Frame-Relay Switch
ATM switch
Access Server
Network Entry and Exit point
Concentration Point for dial-in / dial-out connections
Gateway
Network Entry and Exit point
Protocol Converter for different types of networks
Go-between for same protocol networks
