Use the Application screen to create custom application definitions.
Extreme Network's AP5xx model APs, running WiNG 7.1.2 and later versions of the WiNG 7 OS, use EAA (Extreme Application Analytics) (Purview™) libDPI engine to implement Application Visibility and Control (AVC) within a managed network. libDPI detects top-level hosting applications along with the services these applications host. Refer to the WiNG 7.2.1 CLI Reference guide for information on Purview Application policy and group.
Legacy WiNG 802.11ac APs and service platforms use a third-party DPI engine to enforce AVC within a managed network. To enforce AVC on legacy WiNG APs and service platforms, use application definitions in Create an Application Policy and Create an Application Group.
