ProCurve Radio Port 230
features

• Network self-healing: In the event of a radio port failure, adjacent ProCurve radio ports adjust transmit power and data rates to maintain wireless LAN coverage.

• RF detection and interference avoidance: ProCurve radio ports automatically recalibrate channel assignments to avoid environmental or other 802.11-based wireless interference.

• Choice of IEEE 802.11i, Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2), or WPA: locks out unauthorized wireless access by authenticating users prior to granting network access; robust Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) or Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) encryption secures the data integrity of the wireless traffic

• IEEE 802.1X: provides port-based user authentication with support for Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), TLS, TTLS, PEAP, and SIM, with choice of AES, TKIP, and static or dynamic WEP encryption for protecting wireless traffic between authenticated clients and the access point

• 4 BSSIDs/16 SSIDs per radio: Multiple wireless broadcast domains with separate security, authentication, and policy configuration per SSID provide access control of network resources based on user authentication and level of trusted security between the wireless user and the network.

• RADIUS-based MAC authentication: a wireless client is authenticated with a RADIUS server based on the MAC address of the client; this is useful for clients that have minimal or no user interface

• Neighbor access point (rogue AP) detection: Each ProCurve radio port simultaneously scans for the presence of other access points while servicing wireless clients. Radio ports can be configured as dedicated RF monitors for continuous monitoring of the RF environment.

• Inter-station traffic blocking: prevents communication between client devices associated on the same radio port

• Closed system: restricts broadcast of SSID as a security measure to conceal presence of the wireless network

• Simultaneous 802.11a and 802.11g radio operation: supports dual-band wireless clients and provides backward compatibility for 802.11b wireless devices

• Per-radio integrated diversity antenna with omnidirectional coverage: provides robust, dual-radio wireless LAN coverage for open office environments

• IEEE 802.11h International Telecommunication Union (ITU) compliant: Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) and Transmit Power Control (TCP) are employed to automatically select another channel and adjust transmit power to minimize interference with systems such as radar, if detected on the same channel.

• International country configuration: Centrally configured on the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Module, all ProCurve radio ports automatically adjust to match selected country regulatory requirements.

• Auto Channel Select (ACS): helps minimize radio co-channel interference by automatically selecting an unoccupied radio channel

• Adjustable output power: controls cell size for high-density access point deployments

• Wi-Fi WMM support: provides QoS functionality in wireless networks by prioritizing wireless traffic from different applications

• SpectraLink voice priority (SVP) support: prioritizes SpectraLink voice IP packets sent from a SpectraLink NetLink SVP server to SpectraLink wireless voice handsets to help ensure excellent voice quality

• Fast, secure roaming: enables seamless, fast roaming with pre-cached authentication credentials for wireless users
