Wireless Network using HP Equipment...

[mrforgetful]

Ok so we're finally looking at getting some Wirless set up for areas that don't have the space for standard computers but I know nothing about setting up a professional wireless network.

I don't want to do what we've done in an IT room ans just stick in a crappy home orientated AP.

Would going with HP Equipment be best so it ties in with what we already have?

Basically at the minute we have a Procurve 5308xl Core Swith and HP Procurve 2626 and 2650. There's also the odd old Cisco Switch around.

So is it a matter of getting this or this and to put in the Core Switch and then some Wireless AP to plug into the remote switches?

Or should I go the Aruba route which I also know nothing about.

Can those controller actually controll access points that are physical connected into other edge switches rather than being plugged into the swtich that the module is installed into.

We run HP 420 WAPS with an Airwave AMP management server.
