Seminar
"Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) - Details" (duration: 2 days)
In this seminar you get
fully independent
technical information about radio networks for private use (WLAN, Bluetooth).
The seminar focuses on technical functions and standards. Possible attacks and
important security precautions as well as required components and their functions
will be discussed. Planning considerations and an example project show ways how
to succeed.
WHY you should attend:
- Because you want to use newest WLAN technology
in your enterprise
- Because you need to know what to consider in planning
and implementation
- Because you want to minimize risk and to
integrate WLANs into your existing LAN infrastructure
- Because you are concerned about possible
impacts to your health
Your PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE:
- Basics in data communication technology and
radio technology are recommended but not mandatory.
