Optional controller functionality
(Optional licenses)
Wireless Intrusion Protection (WIP): Safeguard against wireless security threats, provide visibility into sources of RF interference, and eliminate the need for separate RF sensors and security appliances.
Policy Enforcement Firewall (PEF): Provide identity-based controls to enforce application-layer security, prioritization, trac forwarding and network performance policies for wired and wireless networks.
Policy Enforcement Firewall with VPN (PEFV): Create a secure tunnel and allow your virtual private network (VPN) trac to enter the controller. Also works with ViA client device software..
Advanced Cryptography (ACR): Deliver military-grade cryptography and enable secure access to networks that handle classied information.
Dell Networking W-Series wireless products deliver industry-leading connectivity for enterprise mobility. The Dell W-Series provides
highly dierentiated, context-aware access policies based on the type of user, device, application and location, as well as the exibility
to use any mobile or computing device when implementing a BYOD access policy.
