Network Architecture
Understand how BandXpert fits into your Wi‑Fi stack—APs, gateway/firewall, AAA core, and compliance logs.
How it works (step-by-step)
- 1) User joins SSID → Captive portal redirects the device to the login page.
- 2) Login method → QR / OTP / voucher / staff credentials based on your policy.
- 3) AAA decision → BandXpert authenticates the user and returns the right policy profile.
- 4) Enforcement → Gateway/AP applies speed tier, FUP caps, VLAN mapping, and device limits.
- 5) Accounting → Session logs, IP mapping and exports remain audit-ready.
Deployment options
- Cloud for multi-location chains and ISP rollouts
- On‑prem for strict environments
- Hybrid for best of both
