Solutions Brief: Aerohive Private PSK  346 KB
 |
Because 802.1X requires the installation of a software client, it is difficult or impossible to use on unmanaged devices not owned by the enterprise, such as those of guests, students, subcontractors or the like. Aerohive’s patent-pending Private PSK provides the ease of PSK with many of the advantages of 802.1X solutions.

Optimizing Network and Client Performance through Dynamic Airtime Scheduling 547 KB
 |
Wireless is a shared medium, meaning that all clients and neighboring APs compete for the same limited bandwidth. In addition, each client's speed varies depending on the protocol it is running (802.11 a/b/g/n) and the signal strength, interference and noise it is experiencing. This paper reviews key issues that affect wireless LAN performance, and explains how Aerohive's new Dynamic Airtime Scheduling can solve these problems.

Building Secure Wireless LANs 249 KB
 |
Security of a wireless network still ranks as one of the largest concerns of IT professionals planning to roll out an enterprise wireless LAN. Today the security concerns of the legacy protocols have been largely eliminated and best practices for secure deployment have been developed allowing many wireless deployments to be arguably more secure than their wired counterparts.

The Network Impact of 802.11n 450 KB
 |
802.11n promises to bring revolutionary advances in bandwidth, throughput, and reliability to the wireless LAN. It will also have a perhaps unforeseen impact on the wired network, as well. Bandwidth, throughput and reliability will now become an end-to-end network problem, particularly in cases where the WLAN is deployed as network infrastructure rather than as an overlay.

802.11n Technology Primer 788 KB
 |
In less than a decade, wireless LANs have evolved from a niche technology useable only by a few specialized applications to the default media of choice for millions of businesses and consumers. And WLANs continue to evolve. The latest generation of high-speed wireless LAN technology, based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Draft 802.11n standard, are now becoming available.

Cooperative Control Architecture Whitepaper 1.37 MB
 |
Aerohive Networks has introduced an innovative new class of wireless infrastructure equipment called a Cooperative Control Access Point (CC-AP). A CC-AP enables a next generation enterprise wireless LAN architecture called a cooperative control WLAN architecture. This paper discusses the benefits of this approach and the key underlying technologies of cooperative control, best path forwarding and policy enforcement at the edge.
