About this Guide Dell PowerConnect W-Instant Access Point Overview Dell PowerConnect W-Instant virtualizes Dell Mobility Controller capabilities on 802.11n access points (APs), creating a feature-rich enterprise-grade wireless LAN (WLAN) that combines affordability and configuration simplicity. Dell Instant is a simple, easy to deploy turn-key WLAN solution consisting of one or more access points. An Ethernet port with routable connectivity to the Internet or a self-enclosed network, is used to deploy an Instant Wireless Network. An Instant Access Point (IAP) can be installed at a single site or deployed across multiple geographically-dispersed locations. Designed specifically for easy deployment, and proactive management of networks, Instant is ideal for small customers or remote locations without any on-site IT administrator. Dell Instant consists of an Instant Access Point (IAP) and a Virtual Controller (VC). The Virtual Controller resides within one of the access points. In a Dell Instant deployment only the first IAP needs to be configured. After the first IAP is deployed, the subsequent IAPs will inherit all the required information from the Virtual Controller.
