As the WLAN grew, managing the network became more time-consuming and costly. The university began spending an increasing amount of time managing AP configurations and addressing user problems. They evaluated several wireless LAN management solutions before selecting the vendor-neutral AirWave Management Platform Professional Edition software with RAPIDS rogue AP detection module. In less than a year, they saw over a 200% Return on Investment with the AirWave Management Platform.
