Management:
The FMC 2000 facilitates the gather and transfer of all management information related to the mobile mesh. It makes the “Mobility View” possible. This is the special GUI on HotView which shows the mobile nodes, their current attachment points to the mobility mesh and their transitions across the mobility mesh.
The FMC 2000 also handles all the alarms emanating from the mobile nodes. It serves as load manager for the management traffic and streamlines the transfer of management information between the mobile nodes and the HotView Server.
Security:
The FMC 2000 makes mobility secure via two mechanisms:
Authentication of mobile nodes: When a mobile node is added to the network, it has to be authenticated to ensure security. This authentication is required on a periodic basis to maintain integrity of the system.
Access Control Lists: Unauthorized mobile nodes are prevented from participating in a mobility mesh by using an Access Control List (ACL) which is maintained on the FMC 2000.
Software upgrade:
The FMC 2000 automatically sends the software upgrades to the mobile nodes and ensures that they are all in sync with the latest version of firmware loaded on the FMC 2000.
Configuration:
The FMC 2000 maintains the mobile node configuration and simplifies it.
Scalability:
A single FMC 2000 is capable of supporting:
• Up to 64 Meshes or 2048 Static Nodes (spread over 64 meshes)
• Up to 1024 Mobile nodes across all meshes.
• Up to 32 mobile nodes per static node. |
