Launch Video » Part 2: Deployment Considerations Overview In part 2 of our 6 part series, Aerohive WLAN Architect Devin Akin discusses elements you should think about before deploying an 802.11n network. Launch Video » Part 3: Deployment Considerations in Detail In this episode, Aerohive WLAN Architect Devin Akin will detail considerations you should go through as you deploy 802.11n: Backhaul throughput of Ethernet network RF-based design of and migration to 802.11n Mixed 802.11a/b/g/n deployments Launch Video » Part 4: Technical Enhancements of 802.11n Join Aerohive WLAN Architect Devin Akin for part 4 of our 6 part series on 802.11n. Devin will discuss the technical enhancements of 802.11n, including: MIMO Phy enhancements MAC enhancements Launch Video » Part 5: Technical Enhancements of 802.11n In part 5 of our 6 part series on 802.11n, we will consider a variety of technical enhancements in 802.11n with Aerohive WLAN Architect Devin Akin. Topics include: Guard intervals 802.11n modulation encoding schemes Frame aggregation Block acknowledgements Reduced interframe space Power save Launch Video » Part 6: Coexistence of 802.11n and 802.11a/b/g In this final installment of our 6 part series on 802.11n, Aerohive WLAN Architect Devin Akin discusses coexistence or backward compatibility mechanisms between 802.11n and 802.11a/b/g. Launch Video » Understanding the Concept of Client Health In this short video, Adam Conway, VP of Product Management, will introduce you to a new Aerohive feature, the Client Health Score. The Client Health Score enables administrators to get a summary picture of how a client is performing at a glance. Full statistics are still available if you need to drill down into more details, but with the green, yellow or red icon of client health to point the way, you'll save a lot of time! Adam will show you the background on the feature, then show you how it works in a short live demo. Launch Video » Part 1: QoS Terminology In the first of three short videos in our series, Aerohive Chief Wi-Fi Architect Devin Akin introduces the terminology used with discussing Quality of Service for wireless LANs. Launch Video » Part 2: Examination of Traffic Flow for WLAN QoS Join Devin Akin, Chief Wi-Fi Architect for Aerohive, in this second installment of our series of three videos about Quality of Service for wireless LANs. To illustrate how QoS works in a controller-based WLAN, Devin walks us through how traffic flows upstream from the AP to the controller and then back out to the AP. Once you see this, you won't be surprised that there's latency! Launch Video » Part 3: Airtime Scheduling and QoS In this final of three videos, Aerohive Chief Wi-Fi Architect Devin Akin discusses the use of Airtime Scheduling for Quality of Service in a wireless LAN. Launch Video » SLA Compliance Solution with Performance Sentinel and Airtime Boost Dynamic Airtime Scheduling Aerohive Controller-less wireless LAN Architecture: Fun Bee Video SLA Compliance Solution with Performance Sentinel and Airtime Boost Aerohive's new infrastructure-side performance monitoring and response system — SLA Compliance — increases the troubleshooting granularity and active response speed, allowing IT the ability to make performance guarantees. Launch Video » Dynamic Airtime Scheduling This quick video will take you through what Dynamic Airtime Scheduling is, how it works, and how it can make a huge difference in your wireless network. Launch Video » Aerohive Controller-less wireless LAN Architecture: Fun Bee Video Aerohive, October 2008 Launch Video » Bob O'Hara and Craig Mathias, Episode 1: Controller vs. Controller-less WLANs Bob O'Hara and Craig Mathias, Episode 2: Voice over WLAN, Mesh and 802.11n Bob O'Hara and Craig Mathias, Episode 3: Scalable WLANs for Mission Critical Applications Bob O'Hara and Craig Mathias, Episode 1: Controller vs. Controller-less WLANs Join industry analyst Craig Mathias and WLAN veteran and Airespace founder Bob O'Hara as they discuss WLAN architecture including the benefits and drawbacks of controller-based systems. Launch Video » Bob O'Hara and Craig Mathias, Episode 2: Voice over WLAN, Mesh and 802.11n In this installment of our popular video interview series, industry analyst Craig Mathias and Bob O'Hara look at the future of Voice over WLANs, how different WLAN architectures affect the creation of wireless mesh, and the promise of 802.11n. Launch Video » Bob O'Hara and Craig Mathias, Episode 3: Scalable WLANs for Mission Critical Applications Scalability is key to the successful deployment of a wireless LAN that you intend to carry mission critical applications. In this final installment of our video series, WLAN industry veteran Bob O'Hara and analyst Craig Mathias talk about elements that affect scalability, including performance, resiliency, and management. Launch Video » HiveManager Online Planner — Plan your Deployment! HiveManager Online Demo — Try Before you Buy! Understanding the Concept of Client Health SLA Compliance Demo Dynamic Airtime Scheduling Demo HiveManager Online Planner — Plan your Deployment! In this short video, learn how to plan a Wi-Fi deployment in no time using Aerohive's FREE web-based planning tool! Upload your floor plan, draw the perimeter and walls, using different wall types, and place any of a variety of different Aerohive APs either yourself or with the auto placement feature to ensure the coverage level you specify. The planner will also generate PDF reports showing AP locations, AP inventory, RF settings and heatmaps so you can distribute to management or installers to streamline the deployment process from start to finish. Because it estimates the coverage based on the radio type (e.g. 802.11n 3x3 MIMO), it also works for other vendors' products too. Launch Video » HiveManager Online Demo — Try Before you Buy! See how easy it is to configure, plan, and deploy a wireless LAN, using Aerohive's new HiveManager Online Demo. In this video, you'll see how to create the settings you would use including SSIDs and policies for groups of users, captive Web portal for guests, and more. Then, you'll tap into the power of the Online Planner tool to determine where to place virtual APs for maximum coverage. Then, you can save all of these settings to show others online and actually use the settings to speed your physical deployment even more. Launch Video » Understanding the Concept of Client Health In this short video, Adam Conway, VP of Product Management, will introduce you to a new Aerohive feature, the Client Health Score. The Client Health Score enables administrators to get a summary picture of how a client is performing at a glance.

Adam will show you the background on the feature, then show you how it works in a short live demo. Launch Video » SLA Compliance Demo In this short 5 minute demo, we'll show you how Aerohive's new Performance Sentinel solution works in the lab. You'll see how Aerohive enables you to see if clients and APs are meeting their Service Level Agreements, as well as how you can enable performance boost with just a few clicks. Launch Video » Dynamic Airtime Scheduling Demo In less than 5 minutes, this short demo will show you how Aerohive's unique Dynamic Airtime Scheduling feature works in a lab scenario, using 3 different clients each running at a different data rate. Dynamic Airtime Scheduling enables fast clients to transmit more data faster, freeing up the airtime available for slower clients. The result is a network where all clients run faster. Launch Video »
