Description
HiLCOS is the operating system for all Hirschmann BAT devices. It features more than just basic WLAN AP/Client functions.
This operating system profits from more than 15 years of experience, continuous development and improvement.
HiLCOS is self-written by German engineers and is not based on public or open source, so it provides greater security.
Main functions:
- Basic functionality: Wireless LAN access point/client
- Proven high performance, e.g. fast and smooth roaming
Additionally, many powerful features are integrated which go beyond basic functions. These include:
- Parallel Redundancy Protocol (from release HiLCOS 8.90)
- Opportunistic Key Caching (from release HiLCOS 8.90)
- Integrated Firewall for bridged and routed traffic
- Integrated IP Router (HiLCOS 8.80 introduces IPv6)
- Integrated RADIUS and IEEE802.1x server and supplicant
- Protected Management Frames (PMF)
- Wireless Intrusion Detection System (WIDS)
- Support of communication to BAT-Controller (CAPWAP) with WLC Backup function
- And much more…
Entry level models support simple access point and client-only applications. Easy to configure and implement, inbuilt signal strength meters assist antenna alignment.
