A new mobile application that now gives IT administrators the ability to remotely manage, monitor and configure Ruckus Smart Wi-Fi LANs, known as ZD (ZoneDirector) Remote Control, has been unveiled by Ruckus Wireless, Inc. (NYSE: RKUS).
The application simplifies the maintenance of routine and frequent wireless administration tasks by enabling these from a single mobile device, such as an iPad. Freeing IT administrators from the tether of an Ethernet cable-connected office site, ZD Remote Control empowers them with the mobility, flexibility and convenience of managing their wireless LAN (WLAN) from anywhere.
A replacement of its previous ZD Remote program, ZD Remote Control is the latest mobile management application within a unique suite of mobile tools designed and developed by Ruckus designed and developed mobile tools, which include Ruckus S.W.A.T. (SpeedFlex Wireless Assessment Tool), SpeedFlex, and Zapper; real-time wireless assessment and performance testing tools that validate the performance of existing WLAN installations and assist in the planning of new site deployments.
When combined, these mobile applications give administrators more flexible control over their wireless infrastructure with a much more complete picture of expected performance. This allows them to plan adequately for worst-case scenarios, as well as compare the actual performance of Ruckus products, and those of other vendors.
Simplified Remote WLAN Administration with ZD Remote Control
Administrators can now create, configure and edit a variety of wireless LAN functions such as viewing and editing Bonjour rules, configuring WLANs, viewing the number and types of client devices being used on a wireless network, as well as blocking client device access with the new ZD Remote Control mobile app.
An intuitive, graphical user interface (GUI) provides a single dashboard view of the network, with customised dashboard widgets and one-click enabling of various WLAN system-wide functions such as IPv6, DHCP, etc.
To provide statistics, client details and live logs, ZD Remote Control also offers real-time monitoring of Ruckus Smart WLANs. Without having to carry a laptop or connect to an Ethernet cable in the field, administrators can easily bring up a new Ruckus ZoneDirector controller or ZoneFlex access point (AP) with ZD Remote Control, and can monitor one or more controllers and APs.
Ruckus plans to add capabilities to future versions of ZD Remote Control, like the ability to generate Guest Passes and push them out to customers via either email or SMS, plus the ability to view the Spectrum for a 2.4 or 5 GHz radio on any Ruckus ZoneFlex AP.
Said Hagai Feiner, president of Access Networds, a premier national provider and integrator of pre-programmed enterprise-grade networking solutions: This is how wireless management was meant to be. Never mind management in the cloud, this is enterprise management in the palm of your hand.
With a single tablet we can now easily manage, monitor and configure our existing wireless infrastructure compared to competitive alternatives. Ruckus has taken the lead in delivering innovative tools that bring wireless LANs and wireless LAN management into the 21st century, concluded Feiner.
