Infographic explains critical topics including security, BYOD and interference, and takes on a couple myths in the process.
An infographic available for download from Fluke Networks lets its title say it all: “The 7 Truths of Successful Wireless LANs.” Equipped with the tagline, “Deploy, manage and secure your wireless network the right way the first time—because you can’t afford to get it wrong,” the infographic sums up seven critical wireless LAN characteristics that users must effectively deal with in order to achieve success.
The seven truths are listed in their simplest terms here, but the full document provides more-comprehensive detail and explanation on each. For now, here are the seven truths as compiled by Fluke Networks.
