Lightweight Access Point Protocol or LWAPP is the name of a protocol that can control multiple Wi-Fi wireless access points at once. This can reduce the amount of time spent on configuring, monitoring or troubleshooting a large network. The system will also allow network administrators to closely analyze the network. This system is installed in a central server that gathers data from RF devices from different brands and settings.

  • Lightweight Access Point Protocol or LWAPP is the name of a protocol that can control multiple Wi-Fi wireless access points at once. This can reduce the amount of time spent on configuring, monitoring or troubleshooting a large network. The system will also allow network administrators to closely analyze the network. This system is installed in a central server that gathers data from RF devices from different brands and settings. The server can command a selected group of devices to apply given settings simultaneously. LWAPP was proposed by Airespace, as a standard protocol to provide interoperability among any brand of access point. Its purpose was to standardize "lightweight" access points with the Internet Engineering Task Force, but it was not approved as a standard. Airespace was purchased by Cisco Systems. Although this protocol has so far not been popular beyond the Airespace/Cisco product lines, the CAPWAP standard is based on LWAPP. Support for LWAPP is also found in analysis products from AirMagnet, who has recently implemented a software based on this protocol to analyze Cisco wireless products. Still considered proprietary, LWAPP systems compete with other non-standard lightweight wireless mechanisms from companies like Meru Networks and Aruba Networks.
  • LWAPP Lightweight Access Point Protocol o Protocolo Ligero para Puntos de Acceso es un protocolo de red utilizado para la gestión centralizada de varios puntos de acceso en una red inalámbrica WLAN. Inicialmente desarrollado por Airespace y NTT DoCoMo y actualmente en estado de borrador en IETF El objetivo es: Utilizar Punto de acceso lo más sencillos y baratos posibles. Se le quita todo el trabajo posible. Centralizar el trabajo de filtrado, QoS, autenticación y cifrado en un dispositivo centralizado. Proporcionar un mecanismo de encapsulación y transporte independiente del vendedor.
