Product Description

The Juniper Networks

WLA Series Wireless LAN Access Points provide complete client

access, spectrum analysis, mesh, and bridging services. Featuring support for 802.11n

as well as 802.11a/b/g, the WLA Series provides seamless mobility both indoors and

outdoors, and it enables scalable deployment of wireless voice over IP (VoIP), video, and

real-time location services.

The WLA Series comes with complete security and networking services, along with

advanced performance and scalability features which enable the access points to offload

controllers by inspecting and forwarding traffic locally and performing encryption and

security enforcement at the access point. The WLA Series also provides band steering,

client load balancing, dynamic authorization, quality of service (QoS), bandwidth controls

and dynamic call admission control (CAC)—all of which combine to ensure a more

consistent user experience as traffic is more evenly distributed across controllers, access

points, and radios. This also improves scalability, providing the same consistent user

experience for thousands of mobile users and devices.

The WLA Series is simple to deploy and can easily be configured and managed remotely.

Once installed, the WLA Series access points automatically monitor the data integrity and

radio frequency (RF) signal strength of wireless channels, and continually tune for optimal

RF channel and transmit power. Continuous scanning of the RF spectrum also allows

early detection, classification, avoidance and remediation of performance degrading

interference sources.

WLA Series access points enforce stringent prioritization of delay sensitive trac for voice

and other critical applications and provide granular quality of service (QoS), and bandwidth

management capabilities on a per application, per user or per SSID basis. Wi-Fi Multimedia

(WMM) or SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) can be conﬁgured to ensure optimal QoS for voice

trac. Access point policies allow per user, protocol or class-of-service (CoS) mapping.

WLA Series access points may also be deployed in branch locations away from a main

campus in a controller-less plug and play deployment model. This reduces the cost

and complexity of installing wireless access in remote sites. They can be managed via

the WAN or through the Internet by controllers at headquarters, and will maintain local

session persistence indefinitely, if the WAN link goes down. If the connection to the

controller is lost, wireless services continue uninterrupted; connected clients maintain

wireless connection to the AP, new clients can connect and authenticate locally, and the

Wireless Intrusion Detection System (WIDS) continues. Furthermore, the new country

code override feature in the remote AP profile allows the AP’s channel and transmit

power to be set to meet the specific country’s regulatory requirement where it is located,

independent of the location of the WLAN controller which is managing it.

Product Overview

The Juniper Networks WLA Series

Wireless LAN Access Points provide

client access, spectrum analysis,

bridging, and wireless mesh services

for indoor and outdoor deployments

of enterprise wireless LANs (WLANs).

Configured and controlled by Juniper

Networks WLC Series Wireless LAN

Controllers, the WLA Series performs

deep packet inspection, encryption,

traffic forwarding, and security

enforcement locally, which results

in optimized traffic flows, radically

reduced latency, and massive

scalability.
