Monitoring Access Point Hardware with Juniper Networks

Integrating Access Point Hardware and Juniper Networks with your monitoring system

To integrate Access Point Hardware and Juniper Networks with your monitoring system, please reach out to MetricFire. Book a demo with the MetricFire team to discuss integrating Access Point Hardware and Juniper Networks and how that can support your monitoring system.

What is Access Point Hardware?

An Access Point (AP) can involve either a wired or wireless connection, which is why it is commonly referred to as a Wireless Access Point (WAP). It is a networking hardware device that allows other devices to connect to a wired network via Wi-Fi or wired connection.

One option for an AP is as a standalone device. In this case, the AP may have a wired connection to a router which then forwards data packets between computer networks.

In a wireless router, the AP can be an integral component of the router itself. It can be common for an AP that also acts as a switch, DHCP server, router and firewall. This is because it may also provide ports which are used to increase the network’s size, firewall capabilities and a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) service.

What is Juniper Networks?

Juniper Networks is an American based multinational company. They provide networking products such as Routers, Switches, Networking management software, networking security products, and much more. Established during the mid 90’s they are among the market leaders in the networking space today.

In the past, Juniper focused more on Routers and switches, but as of 2014, have begun focusing and developing more software-defined networking products and security. Juniper currently has the 3rd largest market share for routers and switches used by internet services providers.
