The more Wireless LAN turns out to be a pivotal component of corporate communications, the more features are required which exceed the mere providing of connectivity. Reliable authentication and authorization are as much in demand as scalable management. Voice over WLAN is a crucial factor for the integration of mobile phones into unified communications solutions, which makes considerable demands on the Quality of Service (QoS) and on roaming capabilities. The course at hand deals with the advanced topics which come into play for professional WLANs. A large part of the course consists of practical exercises and configurations on the test network.

Classroom training
- Do you prefer the classic training method? A course in one of our Training Centers, with a competent trainer and the direct exchange between all course participants? Then you should book one of our classroom training dates!
-
Hybrid training
- Hybrid training means that online participants can additionally attend a classroom course. The dynamics of a real seminar are maintained, and the online participants are able to benefit from that. Online participants of a hybrid course use a collaboration platform, such as WebEx Training Center or Saba Meeting. To do this, a PC with browser and Internet access is required, as well as a headset and ideally a Web cam. In the seminar room, we use specially developed and customized audio- and video-technologies. This makes sure that the communication between all persons involved works in a convenient and fault-free way.
