4 Introduction This document describes the steps and guidelines necessary to configure Aruba s wireless LAN infrastructure to work interoperably with Janam s XM66 PDA and XG100 gun. The guide is intended to be used in conjunction with Aruba and Janam configuration guides. Please contact the respective company s sales engineering or support groups should additional information be required. Solution Verified: Janam XM66 PDA Janam XG100 Gun Aruba Product: Partner Solutions Tested: Aruba Wireless LAN Solution XM66W-1NGFBR00 ROM XG100W-LBGFBV00 ROM XG100_WM_ OSB55508 Solution Components Aruba Campus WLAN Solution Secure and reliable mobility is the responsibility of the enterprise network, which must support a wide range of converged clients over wireless, wired, and remote access networks. Laptops and smartphones are capable of simultaneously running voice, data, and now video applications, an operating model that breaks traditional dedicated VLAN and SSID architectures. Delivering the quality of service (QoS), bandwidth, and management tools necessary to accommodate these devices on a grand scale within a campus environment, to users on the road, and in branch offices requires a specially tailored system design. Aruba s unique application and device fingerprinting enable the system to detect the types of traffic flows, and the devices from which they originate. The network can then be dynamically conditioned to deliver QoS - on an application-by-application, device-by-device basis - as needed to ensure highly reliable application delivery. Aruba s integrated policy enforcement firewall isolates applications from one another to essentially create multiple dedicated virtual networks, and then allocates the necessary bandwidth for each user and application. To ensure reliable application delivery in changing RF environments, Aruba s Adaptive Radio Management (ARM) technology forces client devices to shift away from the noisy 2.4GHz band to the quieter 5GHz band, adjusts radio power levels to blanket coverage areas, load balance by shifting clients Deploying Janam XM66 and XG100 with Aruba Networks Secure Mobility Solution 3

5 between access points, and even allocates airtime based on the capabilities of each client device. The result is a superb user experience without any user involvement. These services are complemented by security systems that ensure the integrity of the network. Rogue detection, wireless intrusion and prevention, access control, remote site VPN, content security scanning, end-to-end data encryption, and other services protect the network and users at all times. Aruba s extensive portfolio of campus, branch/teleworker, and mobile solutions simplify operations and secure access to unified communications applications and services - regardless of the user's device, location, or network. This dramatically improves productivity, lowering capital and operational costs while providing a superior uninterrupted user experience. Janam XM66 Rugged PDA Janam s XM66 is a rugged mobile computer that delivers advanced barcode scanning and robust wireless LAN communications. The PDA features a powerful processor and mobile DDR memory for rapid memory access, fast data acquisition, and reduced power consumption. Janam s XM Series devices are sculpted to fit in the hand, weigh less than 10 ounces (283 grams), and have a full 3.5" (89mm) display. Built to withstand multiple 4 (1.2m) drops on concrete, and sealed to IP54 standards, these mobile computers are designed to operate in the presence of environmental extremes. Janam XG100 Rugged Gun Janam s XG100 rugged gun-shaped mobile computer was designed for scan-intensive, extended shift use in demanding environments. The XG100 features field-upgradeable 2D barcode scanning, secure Wi-Fi and mobile DDR memory. Industrial-grade construction (sealed to IP64 standards and designed to withstand multiple 6 (1.8m) drops to concrete) enables operation in hostile operating conditions. The battery is located in the handle, enhancing user comfort and productivity, and integrated EAS tags help protect the asset against theft. LED tail lights provide feedback during overhead scanning, and vibrator alerts offer positive feedback in loud environments.

Network Topology The figure below shows the reference topology used for RF interoperability testing. Deploying Janam XM66 and XG100 with Aruba Networks Secure Mobility Solution 5

7 Aruba Wireless LAN Settings The following Mobility Controller settings were used for the interoperability testis: RF settings o o Beacon interval: 100ms DTIM period: 3 beacon intervals Encryption/Authentication o o The scanners support and were tested for open authentication, WPA2 Personal, and WPA2 Enterprise OKC was enabled in the 802.1X Authentication Profile for WPA2 Enterprise key caching Adaptive Radio Management o ARM, band steering, and WMM/U-APSD were all enabled Janam XM66/XG100 Configuration and Settings The XM66 and XG100 were configured to connect to the Mobility Controller is accordance with the procedure shown in Appendix A. Test Methodology Connectivity was validated for various encryption types. Inter- and intra-vlan roaming times were measured to ensure that real-time applications can be supported. Summary Test Results Test ID Test Description Test Result 5.1 Basic Connectivity tests - Sanity Check PASS Open SSID Association Time PASS WPA / WPA-2 PSK Association Time PASS WPA / WPA-2 Enterprise Association Time PASS Roaming test with WAP2-PSK PASS Roaming tests with WPA2-Enterprise PMK PASS Roaming tests with WPA2-Enterprise OKC PASS Power save mode tests Not tested Deploying Janam XM66 and XG100 with Aruba Networks Secure Mobility Solution 6

8 Known Limitations EAP Type errors: When configuring profiles on the SCU that do not use EAP types, an EAP type can be selected from the EAP Type drop-down menu. Attempting to commit a profile with an incorrect mix of Encryption and EAP types results in an error. Disabling the radio: If Disable is the shown on the Main tab of the SCU, changing to the Status tab and tapping the spacebar can disable the radio. Manual WEP configuration option: Scanning for an SSID set to CKIP Auto results in the configuration option of Manual WEP. User credentials request when returning to coverage area: Going out-of-range of an access point and then returning to the coverage area will cause some devices using WPA or WPA2 with a username and password configuration to display a pop-up box requesting the user s credentials. Ad hoc mode/channel mode support issue: Ad hoc mode does not support the BG Channel Mode setting in the Global tab. SCU Ad hoc connection shown before completed: When the radio mode is Ad Hoc, the SCU displays a connection five to ten seconds before the connection is actually established. This is consistent with the behavior of Windows Zero Config (WZC) when it is used instead of SCU. Incorrect AP name displays: When associated using an Ad Hoc profile with SD radios (such as MSD10G and MSD10AG), the SCU may display an incorrect AP name on the Status tab, i.e., it may use a Cisco AP name from a legacy, infrastructure mode profile connection. Auto profile and setmonitormode: When using the SDK function MonitorMode do not use auto-profile features. Instead Auto Profile should be disabled in the global settings. pspdelay support: The pspdelay setting is not supported on the SDC-MSD10G and SDCMSD10AG modules.
