Course overview
ProCurve Mobility helps network engineers obtain the knowledge and skills required to design, deploy, manage, and troubleshoot IEEE 802.11-based wireless networks. The course provides hands-on experience in configuring and troubleshooting ProCurve mobility infrastructure devices and in using ProCurve Mobility Manager (PMM 2.0) to plan and adjust wireless coverage.
Prerequisites
Successful completion of ProCurve Wireless Fundamentals v8.21 and it’s associated self assessment exam (Note: the ASE – ProCurve Networking & Mobility [2008] certification exam HP0-Y18 includes questions on the material covered in this pre-study.)
Adaptive EDGE Fundamentals (AEF v4.11 or higher)
ProCurve Networking Security (v7.31 or higher)
Audience
ProCurve Networking channel partner systems engineers, network engineers, and other networking professionals.

Course objectives
After completing ProCurve Mobility v8.21, students will be able to:
List the components of the ProCurve mobility solution
List the features of the AP 420 and AP 530 and, given a set of customer requirements, select the appropriate AP
Install and begin to configure the AP 420 and AP 530
List the features of the ProCurve Wireless LAN System, including the Wireless Edge Services Module, the Redundant Wireless Services Module, the wireless services-enabled switch, and the radio ports (RPs)
Describe the options for deploying a Wireless Edge Services Module and its associated RPs
Describe the purpose of auto-provisioning on the wireless services-enabled switch
List the requirements for transmitting traffic from an RP to the Wireless Edge Services Module and on to the wired network
Configure static WEP, dynamic WEP, and 802.1X for WLANs on a ProCurve AP 420, AP 530, and Wireless Edge Services Module
Configure the internal RADIUS server on the AP 530 and the Wireless Edge Services Module
Define radio settings on the AP 420, AP 530, and the Wireless Edge Services Module
Describe ProCurve antennas, identify environments in which they meet the coverage and capacity requirements, and configure ProCurve products to use them
List advanced radio settings and explain when you might need to modify these settings
Describe the factors that affect roaming in a wireless network
Describe the network self-healing, anomaly detection, and redundancy group features that the Wireless Edge Services Module provides
Use the AP 530’s group configuration feature to configure multiple APs
Connect two APs through a wireless bridge (which is also called a wireless distribution system [WDS])
Explain how the AP 420, AP 530, and the Wireless Edge Services Module support dynamic virtual LANs (VLANs)
Isolate problems to identify where they are occurring on the wireless network
Troubleshoot a station, AP 420, AP 530, and a Wireless LAN System
Collect information using the products’ management interfaces
Solve common problems in booting the products and accessing management interfaces
Explain how PMM 2.0 helps you manage the lifecycle of a wireless network:
Plan radio frequency (RF) coverage for a new wireless network
Manage and configure a wireless network
Monitor an existing wireless network
Adjust RF coverage or extend an existing wireless network, as needed over time
Assess the purpose of a wireless network and identify its security requirements
Identify coverage and capacity requirements and select appropriate products and antennas
