Trapeze Networks Mobility System
The Trapeze Networks Mobility System is an enterprise-class WLAN solution that seamlessly
integrates with an existing wired enterprise network. The Trapeze system provides secure
connectivity to both wireless and wired users in large environments such as office buildings,
hospitals, and university campuses.
The Trapeze Mobility System fulfills the three fundamental requirements of an enterprise
WLAN: It eliminates the distinction between wired and wireless networks, allows users to work
safely from anywhere (secure mobility), and provides a comprehensive suite of intuitive tools for
planning and managing the network before and after deployment, greatly easing the operational
burden on IT resources.
The Trapeze Networks Mobility System consists of the following components:
❑RingMaster tool suite — A full-featured graphical user interface (GUI) application for
planning, configuring, deploying, and managing a WLAN and users.
❑One or more Mobility Exchange™ (MX™) — Distributed, intelligent appliances for
managing user connectivity, connecting and powering Mobility Point (MP) access points, and
connecting the WLAN to the wired network backbone.
❑Multiple Mobility Point™ (MP™) access points — Wireless access points (APs) that
transmit and receive radio frequency (RF) signals to and from wireless users and connect them
to an MX.
❑Mobility System Software™ (MSS™) — The operating system that runs all MX switches
and MP access points in a WLAN, and is accessible through a command-line interface (CLI),
the Web View interface, or the RingMaster GUI.
