Guide
This manual describes how to use the Graphical User Interface
(GUI) to configure settings required to bring up and deploy Extreme Networks'
wireless controllers and service platforms within a WiNG 7.3.1 managed network.
WiNG 7.3.1 introduces:
- AP310i/e - This is a
dual-radio indoor model
802.11ax access point. The “i” in AP310i indicates that the access point comes with
internal antennas, and the “e” indicates that it comes with external antenna
connectors. The access point features one built-in dual-band radio and one
band-locked radio, four WiFi internal or external antennas, and one Bluetooth
Low Energy (BLE) antenna.
Note
The AP310i/e requires a minimum
base firmware of WiNG 7.3.1.
The
WiNG
7.3.1 software supports the following access points and service platforms:
- Access Points (802.11ax) — AP310i,
AP310e, AP410i, AP410e, AP460i, AP460e, AP560i, AP560h, AP510i, AP510e,
AP505i
- Access Points
(802.11ac) — AP7522, AP7532, AP7562, AP7612, AP7632, AP7662, AP8432, AP8533
- Service Platforms — NX5500,
NX7500, NX9500, NX9600, VX9000
Following are the AP4XX and AP5XX model APs supported:
- AP410i/e - This is a
tri-radio, indoor model
802.11ax access point. The “i” in AP410i indicates that the access point comes
with internal antennas and
the “e” indicates that it comes with external antenna connectors.
The access point features a dual-band radio, two band-locked radios, six WiFi
internal or external antennas, and one BLE antenna.
Note
The AP410i/e requires a minimum
base firmware of WiNG 7.3.0.
- AP460i/e - This is a
tri-radio, outdoor model
enterprise class 802.11ax access point. The “i” in AP460i indicates that it comes
with internal antennas and the “e” in AP460e indicates that the access point comes
with external antenna connectors. The access point features a dual-band radio, two
band-locked radios, eight WiFi internal or external antennas, and one BLE
antenna.
Note
The AP460i/e
requires a minimum base firmware of WiNG 7.3.0.
- AP560h - This is a dual-radio,
cloud-ready, stadium optimized, Wi-Fi 6, 802.11ax
outdoor access point with eight internal antennas, supporting two software
selectable 30 degree and 70
degree directional antennas. It is ideally suited for high-density user
environments, such as stadiums, large public venues, convention centers and school
auditoriums. The AP560h offers flexible deployment options and can be mounted
under a seat, to a pole, and a wall, thereby ensuring exceptional mobile user
experience.
- AP560i - This is a cloud-ready,
stadium optimized, WiFi 6, 802.11ax outdoor access point with two internal antenna. It is
ideally suited for high-density user environments, such as stadiums, large public
venues, convention centers and school auditoriums. The AP560i offers flexible
deployment options and can be mounted under a seat, to a pole, and a wall, thereby
ensuring exceptional mobile user experience.
- AP510e - This is a next
generation, enterprise-class 802.11ax access point. The AP features a dual-band
radio, a band locked radio, and comes with eight (8) WiFi external antennas and one
BLE antenna.
- AP510i - This is a next
generation, enterprise-class 802.11ax access point. The “i” in AP510i indicates
that it comes with internal antennas. The AP features a dual-band radio, a band
locked radio, and comes with eight (8) WiFi internal antennas and one BLE
antenna.
- AP505i - This is a next
generation, enterprise-class 802.11ax access point. The “i” in AP505i indicates
that it comes with internal antennas. The AP505i can be used in stadiums, public
venues such as hospitals and hotels, retail industry, and educational
institutions. The 802.11ax technology supports more users and internet of
things (IoT) devices.
