BlueView™ Management System

Centralized configuration, monitoring, policy enforcement and maintenance for your WLAN infrastructure.

Configuring, monitoring, and managing multiple WLANs has often required the time-consuming laborious task of touching multiple devices deployed in multiple locations. Bluesocket’s BlueView™ Management System simplifies WLAN management by providing true centralized configuration and maintenance, policy-management, and monitoring capabilities for the BlueSecure™ Controllers and Access Points securing your WLANs.

 

Auto-Discover Your WLANs

BlueView automatically discovers BlueSecure Controllers across a configurable range of IP addresses or networks. Optionally, administrators can configure BlueView to discover and manage specific Controllers by entering individual devices. Once discovered, BlueView places BlueSecure Controllers and the Access Points associated with those Controllers into groups which can be based on organizational structure, location, or departmental management administration.

HOW IT WORKS

The BlueView™ Management System eliminates the labor-intensive task of configuring multiple devices deployed in multiple locations by enabling you to provision, configure, and manage all of your WLAN deployments remotely from a central location.

Schedule and Automate Maintenance Tasks

Do you want to upgrade your network from a single location? BlueView’s powerful scheduling tool enables you to automate BlueSecure Controller and Access Point maintenance and provisioning tasks such as backing up and restoring configurations, pushing out policy or configuration changes, upgrading system software, and installing software patches.

As the demand for wireless connectivity in your organization grows, you can quickly roll out new WLAN deployments by using BlueView to provision, configure, and manage newly deployed BlueSecure Access Points and Controllers from a remote central location.

Powerful Reporting

BlueView’s powerful reporting functionality allows administrators to create detailed inventory, user, login and users over time reports for individual BSCs or groups of BSCs. Reports are available in HTML, PDF and Excel formats and can be scheduled for automatic email delivery to multiple recipients.

Enforce Centralized Policy Rollouts

BlueSecure Controllers (BSCs) use role-based access control to define which network resources and destinations a user may access, the bandwidth available for the user/role, and whether the user’s traffic is required to be encrypted (e.g., using IPSec, L2TP or PPTP). Using BlueView’s powerful configuration template editor, you can define roles that enforce network usage policies and then push these configurations out to either individual BSCs or groups of BSCs on your network to ensure uniform policy enforcement across your entire enterprise.

RF Intrusion Prevention

When combined with BlueSecure Centralized Intrusion Protection System or BlueSecure Access Points, BlueView can also provide RF Intrusion Prevention. BlueView’s RF IPS functionality includes the ability to detect and block rogue access points, ad-hoc users, and alert administrators to RF hacker attacks. BlueView’s integrated GUI provides a complete view of the health and security of the RF environment.

Location & Coverage Maps

BlueView allows adminstrators to create location and coverage maps by importing floor plans and locating Access Points and Sensors on the map. Via BlueView’s secure web interface, administrators can graphically visualize WLAN coverage on the actual floor plan and see power, channel, RSSI and AP user loads in real-time. When coupled with BlueSecure APs or Centralized Sensors, BlueView’s patent-pending location technology provides complete location information to indicate where users, rogue APs or WLAN attackers are, thereby enabling you to quickly find and resolve security issues.
