WIRELESS ACCESS POINT
Wireless access has special security considerations. Many wired networks base the security on physical access control, trusting all the users on the local network, but if wireless access points are connected to the network, anybody within range of the AP (which typically extends farther than the intended area) can attach to the network.
The most common solution is wireless traffic encryption. Modern access points come with built-in encryption. The first generation encryption scheme, WEP, proved easy to crack; the second and third generation schemes, WPA and WPA2, are considered secure if a strong enough password or passphrase is used.

With the growing reliance on smartphones for everyday activities, WiFi has the power to play an important role in the shopping experience. When a brick-and-mortar retailer offers free WiFi, this incentivizes customers to extend their visit, providing the opportunities to explore, discover, and make a purchase. A good wireless network cannot only serve the network office system of the mall, but also bring a more comfortable shopping experience to customers. The TP-Link Omada SDN Solution empowers store owners to create a modern and compelling in-store experience for every customer.
