In the Hotel and Hotspot Solution, the Access Controller (AC) could provide the advanced AAA (Authentication, Authorization and Accounting) functionality with e-Billing feature. The hotspot owner could manage the customers with predefined access and billing plans for post-pay subscribers by built-in AAA. Also the AC supports pre-paid account with an optional account printer for quick and easy internet access.
The integrated real-time accounting system is based on standard RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service)/EAP and supports various billing plans from prepaid, pay-per-time, per-volume, per-use or flat rate. Integration in to existing OSS/BSS (operations and business support systems) systems could be completed with ease.

The UAM (Universal Access Method) of the AC is a key feature in this solution to control user access. The AC also supports multiple secure authentication methods ranging from standard web browser login, MAC authentication, to 802.1x/EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) with passwords, certificates or SIM cards. When users log off, the AC will send all information including connection, time, and usage based information to backend RADIUS of Home Entity respectively for billing.

The UAT of AC could accept and translate fixed company IP settings, and web proxy configurations, so users do not have to reset their corporate IP or web setting. What users have to do is to start browser and to login with a username and password. It makes accessing Internet very easy and user-friendly.

Browan's Dual Radio Access Point (AP) simultaneously supports 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g, and supports up to 32 MBSSIDs (Multiple Basic Service Set Identification) per radio (16 BSSIDs per card). Each BSSID could be configured independently to support a range of security policies, authentication models, RADIUS severs and VLAN IDs. Also each BSSID could be set different priority based on 802.1p tag or 802.11e EDCA which enables WLAN client devise to access wireless link QoS (Quality of Service) capabilities. The key point of the AP setting here is the security issue. AP provides Layer2 Isolation for preventing snooping on the same BSS, and hide the SSID broadcast to prevent illegal users' connections.
