1 Overview of the D-Link Unified Access System WLAN Visualization The D-Link Unified Access System includes the WLAN Visualization tool, which provides a graphical representation of your wireless network through a Web browser. WLAN Visualization detects and displays the D-Link Unified Switch, D-Link Access Points, other access points, and all wireless clients associated with the D-Link Access Point. You can import information about your building layout to customize the network view. Figure 1 shows an example of a floor plan and network with a D-Link Unified Switch that manages two APs. The graph also shows a peer switch and a rogue AP in the network. Figure 1. Sample WLAN Visualization The WLAN Visualization tool provides an AP power display with color-coded channels to help you determine where to physically place access points to reduce interference or increase coverage on your WLAN. D-Link Unified Access System Topology The WLAN network topology you use depends on the size and requirements of your network. Small-to-medium networks might require only one Unified Switch that manages a few D-Link Access Points. For larger networks that need greater roaming capabilities for wireless clients, a deployment with multiple peer switches that each manage several APs might be appropriate.
