Extreme Networks WiNG VX 9000 Controller
Virtualized software-based WLAN controller.

Overview:

Comprehensive Cloud-Ready Wireless Services and a Single Point of Control for Any Size Enterprise

The ExtremeWireless WiNG VX 9000 combines the power of virtualization with Extreme Networks' industry-leading WiNG controller, creating a virtual controller in a class of its own. The cost-effectiveness of virtualization combines with high-performance advanced wireless services, endless scalability, superior deployment flexibility, and centralized management of the entire wireless network through a single windowpane, bringing a new level of simplicity, cost-efficiency, and much needed hardware independence to the wireless LAN.

Minimize Deployment Cost with Maximum Deployment Flexibility

Not only is the VX 9000 easy to deploy, it also brings a new level of ease to WLAN deployment. The VX 9000 supports virtually any server and all of the leading, commercially available Hypervisors for fast and seamless integration into your existing network infrastructure - without adding any new hardware. In addition, you can run multiple instances of the VX 9000 on a single server, substantially reducing cost, space, and power requirements in the network operations center (NOC). With the ability to run in a private or public cloud, you have the freedom to choose the model that works best for your business - install on your own servers in your NOC or lease a server in the public cloud. And with built-in hierarchical management, equipment discovery and configuration is automated, bringing true plug-and-play simplicity to WLAN deployment.

Cloud-Ready with Cost-Efficient Infinite Scalability

With the VX 9000, you simply pay as you grow - just purchase the amount of access point licenses you need today and easily add whatever you need in the future. There is no need to purchase a different controller for different access point capacities - each instance of the VX 9000 can support up to 25,000 access points, providing a real scalable solution for cloud deployments.
