Aruba Networks | People Move. Networks Must Follow.

Aruba Networks (@ArubaNetworks) will be participating at the Wi-Fi Mobility Symposium 2012 (Jan 25th, 10am-4pm PST) and Wireless Field Day 2 (Jan 27th, 8am-12pm PST) events. Both events are organized by Tech Field Day (@TechFieldDay) and more information can be found at Tech Field Day web site.  

Both events will be streamed live at Airheads Social. Live chat will be hosted at Airheads Social Events page for all community members to submit their questions and comments during both events. Questions and comments can also be submitted to #WMS12 and #WFD2 hashtags, respectively, on Twitter. 

Please join me in congratulating the first Airheads MVPs...

Expert interview series continue with Jon Green, aka. jgreen, and Carlos Gomez, aka. carlos, who talk about best practices in enabling secure authentication for employee and guest owned mobile devices. 

Jon shares his view on engineering best practices to enable secure mobile device and user authentication within WLANs. He highlights some of the challenges in enabling both device and user level authentication for smartphones and tablets. Carlos highlights best practices in enabling secure guest Wi-Fi access. He talks about the common ways to enable guest Wi-Fi access and recommends IT organizations to rely on self-registration to reduce operation and support costs. 

We get a lot of questions about this new upcoming Wi-Fi standard and I thought it would be a good idea to talk to our in-house expert at Aruba on the topic. In addition to our 802.11ac FAQ, we are posting a video of that conversation with Peter Thornycroft, aka. pthornycroft, a member of Aruba Networks Office of the CTO.
