Product Description:

Overview
The DSA-6100 is a business-class wireless service gateway designed to segment public and private network infrastructures. By adding a managed switch to the integrated public port, network administrators can deploy several public networks over a large-scale establishment such as a university campus or resort. Using the private port on the DSA-6100, the backend private network can remain completely separate and secure from public access, appropriate for environments such as central offices, hotels, food chains, museums, hospitals, communities, Hot Spots, and campus operation centers.

High Scalability, Availability, and Flexibility
To optimize and maintain network up time and performance, the DSA-6100 Access Controller has two built-in WAN ports that support link failover to provide Internet connection redundancy. In the event where a connection to an ISP fails, the second link configured and connected to a second ISP will take over the role in ensuring that Hot Spot customers maintain uninterrupted Internet access. The DSA-6100 helps in managing wireless and wired network access for multi-level users by providing customizable solution, comprehensive security features, effective user management, integrated wireless access, and flexible accounting engine. In addition, the DSA-6100 access gateway also supports many WAN connection types, including static, dynamic, and PPPoE Client.

Bandwidth Control, Secured Access, and up to 500 Concurrent Users
The DSA-6100 Wireless Access Controller offers several advanced features to help manage and support up to 500 concurrent users online at any time. It provides comprehensive user management controls, simultaneous internal and external user authentication, role-based and policy-based access control, and supports detailed per-user traffic analysis reporting for monitoring bandwidth. The DSA-6100 supports multiple authentication methods, such as POP3, RADIUS, LDAP, internal user database, and external Web (HTTP or HTTPS) authentication, and with support for 802.1q VLAN tagging, different authentication policies can be used per administratorassigned VLAN networks for maximum security. In addition, VLAN tagging also helps to segment and prioritize incoming traffic. With integrated DHCP server and firewall Denial of Service (DoS) Protection, the private network can also be safeguarded from malicious attacks and hackers.

Ease of Management
Network administrators can manage the DSA-6100 and all of its features via web-based, CLI, SSH or SNMPv2 management interfaces. With a wide array of convenient management utilities, the D-Link DSA-6100 Wireless Access Controller is an efficient and powerful hotspot solution.
