Key elements in Fortinet Infrastructure WiFi
Network in control (virtual cell)
 Infrastructure in control of connection, not client
Roaming
 Close to “zero-handoff”, great for moving clients (voice, truck….)
Airtime fairness
 Clients getting a fair share of the network
Single channel, Channel layering and/or striping
 Efficient radio control, more capacity and or “own” wifi for certain clients / service
