Management and UI
With this product, you'll get a handful of control (UI) based. The regular Layer 2 web interface, as well as Engenius Cloud-based operation. We'll first look at the classic web-based management interface. Which we recommend over-the-cloud implementation, but sometimes ... you need to communicate directly to a device if you run into setup issues or something.
Web-Based Management
The web-based GUI offers just some basics and pales of what the cloud-based management function can achieve. Your type in the Ip in a browser and admin/admin
Cloud based operation
Cloud-based features will be great if you've worked with networks before. The dashboard for example is one of the most valuable things. If a certain device is taking up a lot of bandwidth or is offline, you can figure out what's wrong.
You get all the security and monitoring features you'll need, including wireless systems that can detect and protect against intrusions. It will automatically shut down the attack if your network gets hacked, so you don't have to do anything
What's lovely is that in the cloud software, you can easily setup your SSIDs corresponding to frequency; you can combine and separate these. Also, you can make a big profile, of you have multiple access points, your APs will automatically configure themselves based on the profile options. Also good to know is that the units update firmware automatically and with security in mind that's a lovely feature.
Of course, the cloud software is not limited towards the access point, if you have other engenius devices added in the LAN environment, all can be monitored and controlled. The software will even lay down a topology for you.
Once in the cloud interface, you can and should immediately upgrade your firmware, and from here onwards, a plethora of options become available.
