Illustration: MAC Address Identification issue caused by 802.11 protocol limitations |
|
By
providing the existing subscriber gateway with the correct end-user
layer-2 identification, PePWave TAG provides a drop-in solution to
overcome this issue without any changes to the providers' existing
network.

Highlights
- True
MAC Address Identification - TAG enables MAC address identification by
restoring the true MAC address information of each individual end-user.
- Individual
Customer Access Control - TAG allows WISPs to control the network
access of each individual end-user in hospitality, convention, and
hotspot areas.
- Ease
of Deployment - TAG interfaces with the centralized Access Gateway. It
can be drop-in deployed on an existing network infrastructure without
any configuration changes to existing devices.

Features
- Discover
Wireless Users True Identity - TAG attacks limitations in the 802.11
protocol standards that cause the loss of users' MAC addresses when
using Wi-Fi repeaters
- Collect
Users True MAC Addresses - TAG receives user IP and MAC address
information from one or multiple PePWave Mesh Connector devices
- Restore
True MAC Addresses - TAG provides instantaneous MAC address translation
and restores users true MAC addresses as traffic passing through
- Transparent Operation and Deployment - TAG works as a transparent layer-2 device and requires minimum configuration
- Drop-in Installation - Simply configure TAG for your network, and plug it in.
- Keep your configuration - TAG requires no configuration changes to your existing infrastructure
- Seamless Layer-2 Authentication - Extend Wi-Fi coverage to popular locations, without sacrificing control over your network
- Fully
Compatible with Existing Subscriber Gateway - Since TAG transparently
re-writes network packets before the subscriber gateway, the gateway
only sees the correct identification
- Layer-2
Authentication - Mesh connector relays each end-users layer-2
information to TAG before the information is lost in transit, allowing
for true Layer-2 authentication
- Enable cost effective coverage enhancement - TAG helps reduce the cost of a true indoor wireless experience
- Make
mesh make sense - Mesh Connector and TAG work with your existing Wi-Fi
mesh to extend wireless coverage beyond the street level to popular
indoor locations
