2 Product Introduction D-Link Nuclias is a cloud-hosted platform that removes the cost and complexity involved with owning and maintaining your own wireless infrastructure. Access to the D-Link Nuclias Portal platform is via a web browser. The Nuclias Portal is divided into organizations, allowing devices to be grouped in Site Tags and Sites for their physical location and be configured as a group using Profiles. Users can also be given access to the Nuclias Portal based on roles and privileges, allowing access to only the parts of the interface that are required. The Nuclias Portal simplifies the management of your wireless and wired network, reducing the need for dedicated support staff, and allowing large numbers of devices to be managed from a single interface. Devices can be pre-registered, allowing them to be installed on site without requiring dedicated IT personnel. This reduces installation costs and simplifies network management, making the Nuclias Cloud an ideal solution for expanding and managing your new or existing wireless network. 2.1 Terms and Concepts The following section provides a brief introduction and description of the terms and concepts used in this product.
