The Connected World of Everything – Freedom from Controllers The 5 Generations of Wireless LAN Architecture | Hi James, 4th of July is the time of year we celebrate the birth of American independence and our freedom in this country. As we gear up to celebrate this day by spending time with family and friends by firing up the grill and watching fireworks, there is something else we can be celebrating – our FREEDOM FROM WLAN CONTROLLERS.
In the beginning stages of Wi-Fi, the wireless LAN controller was developed to serve the purpose of a central “brain” because it was easier and more cost effective at that time to have the processing power in a central controller rather than in the access points themselves. A few years after the controller was developed, Aerohive created a new opportunity that eliminated the need for the controller altogether, through 'distributed control' Wi-Fi.
A distributed control Wi-Fi environment has many benefits, including cost savings, operational simplicity, and scalability/flexibility. Read this whitepaper on controllers, cloud, and cooperative control, to learn more about the history of Wi-Fi, the 5 generations of Wi-Fi, and how cloud enabled services can take your network beyond connectivity.
