AX411 Access Point Description

The Juniper Networks AX411 Access Point provides network access for wireless clients such as laptop or desktop computers, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and any other device equipped with a Wi-Fi adapter. The AX411 Access Point supports the new IEEE

802.11n wireless networking standard with backward compatibility forthe IEEE 802.11a/b/g standards.

Figure 1 on page 3 shows the AX411 Access Point.

Figure 1: AX411 Access Point

The AX411 Access Point is managed by a services gateway in the SRX200 line (SRX210, SRX220, or SRX240)or anSRX650 Services Gateway. You manage and configure access points through the command-line interface (CLI) and J-Web interface of the services gateway.

AX411 Access Point Hardware Guide

You can connect and use up to two access points on the services gateway without obtaining access point licenses. To use more than two access points, you must obtain an additional access point license (SKU AX411-2) and install it on the services gateway. You obtain access point licenses from your Juniper Networks representative or reseller.

Table 3 on page 4 shows the maximum number of access points supported for each

applicable services gateway type.

4SRX210

2SRX220

4SRX240

4SRX650

NOTE: If you have previously deployed a greater number of access points

per services gateway than specified in Table 3 on page 4, we recommend thatwhen practicalyou reducethe number ofaccess points to those specified. If you want to deploy more than four access points, we recommend that you use Juniper Networks WLA Series WirelessLAN accesspoints andWLC Series Wireless LAN Controllers.

Deploying WLANs with AX411 Access Points

To deploy a wireless network with AX411 Access Points, you install one or more access points throughout your site and connect them to Ethernet ports on the services gateway that manages the access points. You can provide power to the access points using Power over Ethernet (PoE) by connecting them to services gateway ports that have PoE capability. You can also provide power to the access points using either optional external power supplies or PoE adapters.

You can connect the access points either directly to the SRX Series device or to a Layer 2 switch that is connected to the SRX Series device.

Figure 2 on page 5 shows a typical WLAN deployment in which four AX411 Access Points

are connected directly to an SRX210 Services Gateway.
