o Microservices-driven architecture to provide resilient and scalable
architecture.

Benefits

Scalable Architecture
Quantum Rudder is Ultra-scalable. Depending on the device type, it can manage multiple APs,
Switches and Gateway. On-premise Rudder with HA (Active-Passive).

Graphical Dashboards
It provides comprehensive, APIs that enable application configuration and real-time
monitoring of Quantum Networks devices. Build separate dashboards for individual
administrators. The dashboard provides a summary of events occurring on Quantum Networks
devices. It summarizes details of total sites, device information, connected clients, critical
alarms and warnings if any.

Multi-tier Tenancy
The multi-tier hierarchy provides flexibility to service providers to allow administrators and
operators to manage, create and reuse.

Administrative Dashboard
A controller dashboard is a platform that reduces the time required to support and configure
large-scale networks. Consistent menus plus consolidated and streamlined navigation
shortens time to perform routine tasks such as Access Point, Switch configuration. The
administrator can view health and traffic analysis, network alerts and statistics.

Quantum Rudder is a wireless network management user interface for

Deploying, Monitoring, Managing and Troubleshooting Access Points, Switches
and Gateway devices.

Scalability, Reliability
Quantum Rudder is SSL-certified to provide secure, encrypted communications between Access
Points / Switches / Gateways and Cloud controller. Quantum Rudder, designed from the ground
up as a cloud application, ensures the highest possible availability and uninterrupted service. Web-
scale database design for responsive performance even when working with a huge amount of data.

Role-based Administration
Role-based access control with pre-grouped administration permissions makes common roles
easier to set up. Users can define read-only or modify permissions that apply across zones, add
new administrator profiles and set permissions. It allows the administrator to access Quantum
Rudder and site management such as QIM. Its MSP module allows the partner domain to create its
clouds that may contain the site data.

Partner Domain (MSP)

The Partner domain enables operators to separate tenants with their own unique set of
configurations, profiles and system objects which are not shared with other tenants. It creates a
wall between tenants to ensure privacy and alleviate operational headaches associated with tenant
management. Also, service providers can personalize the administrative dashboard for their
tenants with unique logos and text.

External Integrations
Rudder supports external integrations using industry-standard protocols like TR-069, SNMP
v2/v3 and API.

Network Health Monitoring and Troubleshooting

AP, Switch and Gateway Health

Keep an at-a-glance summary of the entire network health through an intuitive dashboard,
designed to allow drill down for more information on the go.

Client Health
Client connection diagnostics for wireless client’s speeds and simplifies troubleshooting
and client problem resolution. The administrator can focus on a specific client device and
its connection status with this troubleshooting tool. An intuitive interface tracks and
monitors the progress of the user’s connection through 802.11stages, EAP authentication,
RADIUS, captive portal redirects, encryption key setup, DHCP and roaming.

Reporting
Enhance reporting structure to provide the data on daily, weekly and monthly schedules
which can be export or send to the administrator. The administrator can check on real-time
client performance metrics, connections and traffic, track client SNR (signal-to-noise ratio)
and data rate, as well as historical traffic to overcome troubleshoot connectivity problems.

Configuration and Login Audits

The administrators can keep the logs of activities and login records with time duration.

Monitoring
Track individual Wi-Fi client records such as Hostname, IP Address, uptime, wireless details,
bandwidth, noise level, signal strength, speed, association history and device name.

Highlights
Quantum Secure
Quantum Secure jumbles the WPA/WPA2
key, pre-configured MAC address and user
password to allot an automated randomized
passkey and provide access to the device.
This device access cannot be used on
another device, even by the same user. It
ensures client security even in case of a lost
device or password compromise.

Quantum Secure+
Quantum Secure+ allows users to get authenticated before getting access to the Internet
through the Internet Browser. Every user will get web-authenticated by using individual
user credentials. Once the user discovers the WLAN (SSID) on their wireless device,
laptop, desktop or any other device, they will get a popup to enter the required login
information.

Quantum Guest Pass

Provides guest passes for the guest users to allow temporary access. The guest users will be
authenticated by the administrator.

Quantum Services
Q-services collectively revolutionize network management, ensuring unwavering reliability,
top-tier security and optimal performance within the Quantum technology landscape. These
solutions are designed to deliver secure, efficient and high-performance network operations,
providing businesses with state-of-the-art capabilities.

Highlights
Wi-Fi Mesh Management
Mesh Wi-Fi is a Wi-Fi system built to eliminate dead zones and provide uninterrupted Wi-Fi
throughout the entire area. Mesh features enable devices in the network to have faster speeds,
greater coverage and a more reliable connection. Mesh Wi-Fi is faster and more efficient at delivering
Wi-Fi signals.

Flexible Deployment
Quantum Networks offers flexible deployment options using Quantum cloud, On-premises and Virtual
platforms without compromising security, data privacy or administrative control.

Theft Protection
Software-based theft protection functionality protects assets from misuse. Access Point will be locked
for deployment in any other network until decommissioned from the existing network.

URL filtering
URL filtering for wireless and gateway clients allows
businesses to create and enforce access policies that protect
users from inappropriate and harmful websites while
maintaining access to allowed URLs. Policies are granularly
applied at a wireless LAN or user group level with override
whitelist/blacklist options.

VPN CONNECTIVITY
UnGrid
UnGrid offers an ultra-scalable solution to
onboard Trusted Users, Devices and Applications
on the same network. It's highly scalable and
comes with a secure infrastructure to provide
reliable performance. It is elastic to scale from a
small workforce to thousands of users on the go.
UnGrid ensures seamless connectivity of the
entire team from anywhere, anytime. Since no
hardware infrastructure is required to invest in and
manage, it reduces the total cost of ownership.
