Bluesocket BlueView Management System (BVMS)

BlueView™ Management System

Centralized configuration,
monitoring, policy enforcement and maintenance for your WLAN infrastructure.
 

Configuring, monitoring, and managing multiple WLANs has often required the time-consuming laborious task of touching multiple devices deployed in multiple locations. Bluesocket’s BlueView™ Management System simplifies WLAN management by providing true centralized configuration and maintenance, policy-management, and monitoring capabilities for the BlueSecure™ Controllers and Access Points securing your WLANs.

Dedicated Centralized Management Appliance
BlueView’s powerful centralized management capabilities come packaged in an easily deployed, dedicated 2U network appliance equipped with high-speed communication ports and dual large-capacity high-speed disk drives. The BlueView management appliance eliminates the time consuming and expensive process of installing and configuring network management software on a generic computing platform.

Auto-Discover Your WLANs
BlueView automatically discovers BlueSecure Controllers across a configurable range of IP addresses or networks. Optionally, administrators can configure BlueView to discover and manage specific Controllers by entering individual devices. Once discovered, BlueView places BlueSecure Controllers and the Access Points associated with those Controllers into groups which can be based on organizational structure, location, or departmental management administration.

Monitor Your WLANs in Real-time
BlueView Management System polls the network to analyze the health and connectivity of your WLANs. Dashboard views give administrators complete system status of BlueSecure Controllers and Access Points enabling a quick response to any issue that may arise.

Schedule and Automate Maintenance Tasks
Do you want to upgrade your network from a single location? BlueView’s powerful scheduling tool enables you to automate BlueSecure Controller and Access Point maintenance and provisioning tasks such as backing up and restoring configurations, pushing out policy or configuration changes, upgrading system software, and installing software patches.

As the demand for wireless connectivity in your organization grows, you can quickly roll out new WLAN deployments by using BlueView to provision, configure, and manage newly deployed BlueSecure Access Points and Controllers from a remote central location.

Powerful Reporting
BlueView's powerful reporting functionality enables administrators to create inventory, detailed user, login and users over time reports for individual BlueSecure Controller's or groups of BlueSecure Controllers. Reports are available in HTML, PDF, and Excel formats and can be scheduled for automatic email delivery.

Securely Manage Remote WLANs
Establish secure remote connections (SSL) to BlueView over the Internet and use its intuitive Web-based administrator console to monitor, manage, and configure the BlueSecure Controllers and Access Points securing your WLANs.

Enforce Centralized Policy Rollouts
BlueSecure Controllers (BSCs) use role-based access control to define which network resources and destinations a user may access, the bandwidth available for the user/role, and whether the user’s traffic is required to be encrypted (e.g., using IPSec, L2TP or PPTP). Using BlueView’s powerful configuration template editor, you can define roles that enforce network usage policies and then push these configurations out to either individual BSCs or groups of BSCs on your network to ensure uniform policy enforcement across your entire enterprise.

RF Intrusion Protection
When combined with BlueSecure Centralized RF Sensors, BlueView can also provide RF Intrusion Protection (IPS). BlueView's RF IPS functionality includes the ability to detect rogue access points, ad-hoc users, and alert administrators to RF hacker attacks. BlueView's integrated GUI provides a complete view of the health and security of the RF environment.
