ManageEngine WiFi Manager is an integrated wireless security and management solution, offering multi-vendor access point configuration, firmware upgrade, rogue detection, combined wired and wireless network monitoring, and reporting capabilities for enterprise-grade wireless networks. The wifi manager protects WLANs from security threats such as intrusions and vulnerabilities. It automatically discovers all wireless and wired assets in the distributed network and enables IT to control them from a single console. The Web-based user interface makes it easy to be accessed from anywhere, using a standard HTML browser.

and others

Rogue Detection & Blocking

Multiple techniques involving AP scan and wired side inputs are employed to detect rogue access points. Once detected, WiFi Manager provides details such as nearest access point and switch port mapping for the administrators to locate and block the rogue AP from the network.

Access Point Configuration

Using WiFi Manager administrators can configure access point for basic settings, radio settings, access control settings, security settings, and services settings. Administrators can either fill in predefined configuration templates and push the values to select access points or group access points based on model, firmware version etc., and configure them in bulk.

Firmware Upgrade

WiFi Manager facilitates remote firmware upgrade of access points. Upgrades can also be scheduled for later execution.

Wired & Wireless Network Monitoring

WiFi Manager monitors access points and other network devices for availability, SNMP reachability, traffic, and utilization. It generates specific reports for WLANs including radio reports, error reports, association reports, and security reports.

Troubleshooting

Web-based GUI enables quick access to alarms, reports, configuration history etc., facilitating easy troubleshooting.
