Scenario:
Your business is growing. You want a scalable
wireless solution that protects your existing product
investment and offers easy migration to high-
performance IEEE 802.11n wireless connectivity when
your business demands it. You also want an easy way
to manage guest users as well as a secured wireless
network for employees, customers, and visitors who
access your network.
Solution: flexible, scalable, and secure
wireless connectivity
HP ProCurve’s scalable mobility solution provides
cost-effective mobility with a smooth technology
upgrade path. You can start by deploying intelligent
MultiService Mobility (MSM) access points in a
standalone network configuration. Then, as business
growth requires more access points, you can add an
MSM controller for easy centralized management of
the entire wireless network. Your initial investment is
protected, because MSM access points are easily
reconfigured to work with the controller. The controller
solution features easy deployment and management,
investment protection, and rock-solid security.
• Scalable, distributed wireless architecture with
intelligent access points gives you the flexibility
to convert from independent access points to an
advanced, centrally managed mobility solution
• The intelligent access points forward wireless traffic
directly without rerouting to the controller and thus
provide high performance and an easy migration
path to IEEE 802.11n technology
• Simplified and central management of your access
points by the HP ProCurve MSM710 Mobility
Controller reduces the complexity of managing
your wireless network
