WiFi Project Lifecycle
A successful WiFi deployment starts with a detailed plan phase.
WL0001 - vWLC 7.3 VMware Installation. The video demonstrates installation of a virtual Wireless LAN Controller (vWLC). We will step through the configuration starting from the creation of a virtual machine all the way to enabling evaluation license, having an access point join the controller and a user connects to a SSID. So The Virtual Wireless LAN Controller (vWLC) runs on Virtualization infrastructure. It's ideal for small and mid−size deployments. Today i will explain The Basic installation of vWLC on ESXi server First need to download the OVA from Cisco web. Download the Cisco Virtual Wireless LAN Controller (vWLC) OVA for your specific deployment What version of virtual Wireless LAN Controller you deploy will depend on your design and time. Cisco updates the virtual Wireless LAN Controller versions pretty regularly so you may have a newer version of virtual Wireless LAN Controller than what I am. We are going to install Cisco wireless virtual controller on Proxmox hypervisor and connect it to pfSense router. Prerequisites: pfSense router with required VLANS created and tagged to Proxmox (I.
This phase begins with gathering initial specifications such as WiFi coverage, number of clients, types of devices and defining critical business applications.
Services available in the 'Plan Phase' are WiFi consultancy, network and WiFi surveys.

Coverage, capacity, applications, security are just some of the key elements taken into consideration for our designs while capturing the future aspirations of the network.
Find out moreExperience is the key element to success when installing and integrating wireless networks and with nearly 15 years’ experience there isn't a lesson we haven’t learnt.
Our engineers are extensively trained in physical installations, working at height, health and safety and they have active involvement in continually improving our processes. We have performed installations across Europe in the most complex of environments from manufacturing plants, warehousing, corporate offices, high streets and shopping malls.

Validate the installed WiFi network against specifications and refine configurations for optimum performance.
Optimising ensures what was detailed in the planning and design phases have been delivered on. Taking the results from a validation survey and fine tuning adjustment as required.
Find out moreUpon successful project completion it is time to maintain.
Maintenance ensures the ongoing performance and support required by networks. Maintenance services are tailored to each specific network and customer need.
