Huawei has launched wSight, a “carrier-grade” system for the operation and management of WLANs.
An increasing number of operators are deploying WLAN in hotspots that experience highly concentrated user activity, presenting challenges for network deployment, configuration, and O&M. Huawei’s wSight addresses these challenges.
Huawei’s wSight for WLANs serves the same function as standard management systems for telecom networks by providing operators with integrated reports and featuring a configuration tool and web-designed infrastructure. The wSight’s integrated reports display network status and network Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) over a specific period of time. The wSight’s smart configuration tool is used to mass-manage network equipment and configure other-vendor equipment according to operator requirements. The wSight’s web-designed infrastructure allows O&M engineers to manage networks through a web browser.
Huawei’s wSight also provides a Northbound Interface to connect an upper-level management system and meet the unified management requirements for operator networks, in addition to meeting operator O&M needs for WLAN development.
