Wireless

In this section:

1. Wireless Clients
   Wireless clients are client devices that are connected to the wireless network services that your managed APs provide. Wireless clients can include smart phones, tablets, and notebook computers equipped with wireless network adapters.
2. Traffic Analysis
   Traffic Analysis provides network traffic information for APs, WLANs and clients.
3. Deauthorizing a Wireless Client
   You can force wireless clients that joined the wireless network through an authentication portal (for example, a hotspot, guest access, or web authentication portal) to reauthenticate themselves by deauthorizing them. Deauthorized wireless clients remain connected to the wireless network, but are redirected to the authentication portal whenever they attempt to access network resources.
4. Blocking a Wireless Client
   When a user associates a wireless client device with an AP that the controller is managing, the client device is recorded and tracked. If, for any reason, you need to block a client device from accessing the network, you can do so from the web interface.
5. Unblocking a Wireless Client
   If you want to allow a previously-blocked client to access the SmartZone network, you can unblock their access.
6. Disconnecting a Wireless Client
   Wireless clients can be temporarily disconnected from the wireless network through the web interface. For example, when troubleshooting problematic network connections, wireless clients may need to be manually disconnected as part of the troubleshooting process.
7. Viewing a Summary of Wireless Clients
   You can view a summary of wireless clients that are currently associated with all of your managed APs.
8. Viewing Wireless Client Information
   You can view more information about a wireless client, including its IP address, MAC address, operating system, and recent events that have occurred on it.
