 Ruckus AP’s are easier for planning.. Resellers can verify with 3 rd party tool
 Verify with the tool to save costs for properly designed
WLAN
 Money and time may be wasted on implementing inappropriate hardware incorrectly
 The wireless LAN may never work properly resulting in frustrated users
 Help Resellers to validate
Quotation

 Understand the business needs of the wireless
LAN
 What will the WLAN be used for?
 Bandwidth & Roaming requirements
 Determine signal coverage and control
 Where RF coverage should and should not be
 Understand and meet any security requirements
 Regulatory requirements
 Type and classification of data being transferred
