MediaFlex 2200 Series
High Performance 802.11g Smart Wi-Fi Bridge/Repeater
Simple Installation, Reduced Support Costs
Self-installable, the Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series utilizes dynamic host
confi guration protocol (DHCP) for automatic confi guration with the metro Wi-Fi
network. The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series has a simple and intuitive user
interface and provides a setup wizard to guide the home users to confi gure the
device.
The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series is equipped to be remotely manageable
by the metro Wi-Fi service provider’s network management center via HTTP,
HTTPS, Telnet and SSH. The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series provides extensive
statistics to the service provider’s network management center for ease of
troubleshooting and monitoring. Multiple clients are supported behind the
Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series in the metro Wi-Fi network. Integrated NUTTCP
support allows providers to conduct performance testing directly from the
metro node to the MediaFlex 2200 Series.
The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series is equipped with DHCP server functionality.
The MediaFlex 2200 Series supports multiple home PCs by automatically
assigning dynamic IP addresses. Network address translation (NAT) is used to
give home PCs Internet access. In the event of a broadband connection failure,
the MediaFlex 2200 Series automatically alerts the user by redirecting them to
an status page while continuing to provide local network connectivity.
Metro Hotspot Deployment
The Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series allows metro ISPs to easily extend wireless
coverage while maintaining user identity. This is essential for providers that
must authenticate users based on a unique MAC address. Through the use of
L2TP tunnelling, traffi c from the Ruckus MediaFlex 2200 Series is transparently
bridged to a centralized data center or NOC, allowing the authentication and
billing of individual users (see L2TP Application Note for more details).
