Guest Networking

Recovering patients. Relatives in waiting rooms. Visiting physicians and suppliers. Many of them could benefit from getting online to view a video in their room, send an email to other family members, access a patient chart. Now you can let them have access to your network without jeopardizing any of your network resources or data.

Guest networking from Enterasys enables you to give each user only those network services that you choose--and blocks them from any other network service. Treat your patients as guests--and leave the security to us.

Key Benefits
  • Generate revenue from video on demand services
  • Improve patient satisfaction
  • Improve the quality of care provided by visiting physicians
  • Improve the productivity of suppliers
Why Enterasys?
  • Enterasys allows you to easily deliver specific network services and bandwidth to each individual so patients and their families can be limited to Internet access only while visiting physicians can gain information to their patient's electronic medical record.
  • Increase security-- Authenticates users at the network edge and allows you to establish both who and what kind of traffic is allowed onto the network
  • Realistically deploy and manage guest networking; Enterasys automates network configuration so guest networking is doable.
  • Support for both wired and wireless networks. You don't have to line your walls with ports to offer guest networking. Enterasys provides the same flexibility and security in both wired and wireless networks.
Enterasys Networks

Enterasys allows guests in its conference rooms to access the Internet while protecting the Enterasys network itself. While competitive networks offer some guest privileges by putting all guests into a virtual LAN (VLAN), the VLAN separates these guest users from the network--which leaves the guests vulnerable to attack from other. For example, if on a given day, visitors from HP, IBM, and Dell all visited the same conference facilities, placing them in the same VLAN could be aiding and abetting a security breach. Enterasys guest networking, on the other hand, personalizes which network services are available to each user, eliminating the need for a VLAN. What's more, this is accomplished without IT interference or administrative overhead. This same network intelligence enables Enterasys employees to travel to any office worldwide and seamlessly access the Enterasys network without the need for administrators to set them up at each site.
