How is centralized management of wireless networks made possible??

What will be an ideal response?


?Centralized wireless management is made possible by a lightweight wireless protocol, such as Cisco's proprietary LWAPP (Lightweight Access Point Protocol), or Cisco's newer CAPWAP (Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points), both of which direct all wireless frames to the controller by adding extra headers to the frames. The wireless controller can provide centralized authentication for wireless clients, load balancing, and channel management so that neighboring APs don't try to use overlapping channels. The controller also manages AP redundancy by directing wireless traffic to alternate APs when an AP fails. Wireless controllers can also detect the presence of rogue access points by recognizing when an unauthorized AP attempts to connect to the network.
