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.

RANCID is a tool that oversees the configuration of routers and other devices, tracking both software and hardware details such as cards and serial numbers while utilizing version control systems like CVS, Subversion, or Git to keep a record of modifications. Additionally, RANCID incorporates looking glass software, which is derived from Ed Kern's original implementation that served http://nitrous.digex.net/, a site familiar to longtime users. The enhanced version of RANCID boasts added functionalities and compatibility with various devices, including Cisco, Juniper, and Foundry, employing the included login scripts to facilitate connections via telnet or SSH. Currently, RANCID is capable of managing a diverse array of hardware, which encompasses Allied Telesis switches running on AW+, Cisco and Juniper routers, Catalyst and Foundry switches (now under Brocade), Redback NASs, ADC EZT3 multiplexers, and HP Procurve switches, among many others. This wide-ranging support ensures that network administrators can rely on RANCID for effective configuration management across different platforms and devices.
