Description

FlexConnect is a wireless solution designed for deployment in branch and remote offices, allowing users to manage access points (AP) from a central corporate location via a wide area network (WAN) without needing individual controllers at each site. This system permits the configuration and oversight of access points from a distance, ensuring efficient management of network resources. FlexConnect access points have the capability to handle client data traffic locally and can authenticate users on-site if their connection to the main controller fails, but they can also relay traffic back to the controller when connected. In this connected state, the access points are further able to execute local authentication processes. Clients can be managed on a per-WLAN basis, where data can be sent to the controller using CAPWAP (Central Switching) or routed locally through the AP's LAN port (Local Switching). With the Local Switching option, the access points can differentiate client traffic by tagging it into separate VLANs, effectively isolating it from the management traffic. This flexibility enhances network performance and security for branch offices significantly.

Description

The Secure Gateway Service offers a fast, straightforward, and secure method for establishing connections across various platforms. This service ensures a continuous link between local environments or third-party cloud services and the IBM Cloud®. You can easily configure gateways that connect your systems, oversee the mapping between your local and remote locations, and keep an eye on all data traffic. Users can manage all their gateways through the Secure Gateway Service dashboard or focus on individual gateways via the Secure Gateway Service client. Access management features are conveniently provided in the client, allowing users to grant or restrict access to specific resources, thereby safeguarding against unauthorized entry. Furthermore, any changes made to the access list will be automatically updated across all clients linked to the same gateway. Additionally, subscribers to Professional and Enterprise plans can link multiple instances of the Secure Gateway Service client to a single gateway, benefiting from inherent connection load balancing and failover capabilities. This enhances the resilience and efficiency of your network connections significantly.
