Wi-Fi for MDUs Requires A Unique Service Management Feature Set

ANTlabs is featured on Wi-Fi NOW regarding the Wi-Fi managed services platform, ASP / ASP Cloud, as well as a host of gateway features and services like Advanced QoSPersonal Area Network (PAN), and Web Filtering to enhance the user experience for MDUs (Multi-Dwelling Units).

Introduction

The demand for managed Wi-Fi services for MDUs is on the rise worldwide, but standard enterprise-grade Wi-Fi services are rarely the right solutions for residential premises. The answer is a dedicated Wi-Fi feature set that affords residents all the benefits of professional MDU Wi-Fi including security, dynamic quality of service (QoS) management, and personal area networks.

MDUs are characterised by a lot of building tenants often living relatively close together. The need for dynamic quality of service management is important – as is delivering the right security. Add to this that tenants also want to be able to share content over the private Wi-Fi networks inside their unit only. Standard enterprise-grade Wi-Fi management – even in the Cloud – is simply not enough.  MSPs (Managed Service Providers) offering managed Wi-Fi service in an MDU environment will benefit greatly from ANTlabs solutions that improve productivity, and boost user satisfaction and operational efficiency.

ASP Update #11

This update adds the following enhancements:

  • – Location portal enhancements:
    • > New option in PMS authentication method to hide View Messages and Retrieve Bill buttons in success page
    • > Facebook Like / Share on success page for all social networks
  • – New config backup duplicate feature to copy a config backup from one site to another site
    • > Note: As network configurations will be copied from one site to another, it is recommended that the config backup be taken at the state where WAN uses DHCP-acquired gateway so as to avoid losing WAN connectivity after restoring the config at the site the config is copied to.

This update fixes the following issues:

  • – Location portal:
    • > Facebook Like / Share config controls are hidden in portal edit page although Facebook authentication has been enabled
    • > After successful PMS authentication:
      • – Retrieving bill returns ‘Transaction error: previous request is still being processed’
      • – Viewing messages returns “No messages found” although XL messages have been received from PMS
    • > Reports:
      • – Missing date in downloaded revenue report
      • – Authentication report download results in HTTP status code 500 when user login session has expired
      • – Usage report shows 0 New Users
    • > Accessing gateway GUI via ASP results in SSL certificate warning
    • > Session accounting log maintenance fix
