I am a Network Manager

Virtualized Wireless LANs makes the Meru network easier to set up, manage, and change than other wireless systems, yet it scales to accommodate the largest of venues and handle any application. Meru's advanced technology lets all access points operate on the same channel, eliminating complex channel planning, and makes the network easy to scale, support and secure. Choose Meru and you get:

• Easy setup. A Meru network can be deployed by people without previous RF experience. Ongoing management and upgrades are just as easy. New access points can be deployed easily, like adding a lightbulb, automatically downloading configuration information from the Meru controller and tuning themselves to the rest of the network.
• Reliable Coverage. All Meru access points transmit at maximum power, providing greater RF coverage and requiring an average of 30% fewer APs than a typical wireless system. This high power makes them ideal for extending coverage into hard to reach areas, such as hotels with dense internal walls or stadiums with wide open spaces. And the network can easily scale to higher bandwidth densities by activating additional channels. That makes it easy to support the most crowded venues and the most demanding applications.
• Security. From a simple captive portal to an advanced per-user firewall, the Virtual Port makes it easy to control each user's access rights. A port can be configured to prioritize certain types of traffic and block or rate-limit others, preventing abuse of the network. Meru's firewall works through behavior-based flow signatures as well as deep packet inspection, meaning it can even recognize encrypted applications like Skype.
