摘要:
A technique for dynamically responding to threats in a wireless network involves deploying a single network including APs capable of booting from a plurality of software images. Individual APs can switch (or be switched) between multiple sets of software so that network managers can select the AP software most appropriate for a given instance. For example, if a threat is detected, multiple APs can be switched to sensor mode to deal with the threat. As another example, all of the APs can be switched to sensor mode after hours. Alternatively, a server can provide the software image(s) needed for an AP to operate in accordance with a desired functionality.

摘要:
Measured data, such as WLAN data, are received. The measured data are compared with expected data, such as expected WLAN data. Expected WLAN data can be generated from various sources, for example floor plan data and access point data (e.g., quantity, placement, and/or configuration). Based on such measured data, WLAN features can be changed, such as floor plan and/or access point data (e.g., quantity, placement, and/or configuration).
