AirTight Unveils New Wi-Fi Management UI

AirTight networks has recently unveiled its newest HTML5 UI that will be used to improve the management of Wi-Fi networks and wireless IPs (WIPS) that are available for any scale company. This particular WIPS management service is able to handle as many devices as you could possibly want to run, through a single to use console.

In fact, the revamped UI is designed so that it will relieve Wi-Fi and security administrators from having to use bulky and slow interfaces once and for all.

"Until now, WLAN administration has required highly-skilled IT staff, often needing extensive training and certification by WLAN vendors to use their products. AirTight wanted to change that and designed a management console that administrators could start using in mere minutes, on their own and get their job done as quickly and simply as possible," said Kaustubh Phanse, chief evangelist at AirTight.

This particular dashboard has actually been built from the ground up, and because of that AirTight has managed to make the dashboard lightweight and usable on a Web browser as well as an iPad or Android tablet. The HTML5 interface makes it that much easier to use the UI on all kinds of different devices.

In the past, the administrative workflow has been shunted due to cumbersome platforms, yet with this offering in place user will be able to simplify their workflow overall and take less time to accomplish a particular task. This Wi-Fi network management system also uses drag and drop technology, making it that much easier to control how the network is working for you.

"As this latest announcement from AirTight shows, WLAN management belongs in the cloud," added Craig Mathias, a principal with wireless and mobile advisory firm Farpoint Group. "Highly-distributed operations clearly benefit from a cloud-based management strategy. AirTight is also pointing the way with a highly-customizable UI, multi-platform support, HTML5, and the integration of wireless security and access under a single management console."
