Anytime, Anywhere, WLAN Monitoring and Troubleshooting
AirMagnet's Laptop Analyzer is the industry's most popular mobile field tool for troubleshooting enterprise Wi-Fi networks. Laptop Analyzer helps IT staff make sense of end-user complaints to quickly resolve performance problems, while automatically detecting security threats and other network vulnerabilities. Although compact, Laptop Analyzer has many of the feature-rich qualities of a dedicated, policy-driven wireless LAN monitoring system.

Automatically Detect Vulnerabilities
Laptop Analyzer performs a continuous vulnerability assessment of your Wi-Fi network to detect weaknesses that often go overlooked, enabling you to take corrective action before problems occur. Laptop Analyzer automatically identifies hundreds of vulnerabilities and performance problems, such as 11b/g conflicts, 802.11e problems, QoS, etc. Laptop Analyzer also alerts you of dozens of wireless intrusions and hacking strategies, including Rogue devices, Denial-of-Service attacks, Dictionary Attacks, Faked APs, RF Jamming, "Stumbler" tools, and many more.

Lockdown Security Policies
Laptop Analyzer enables you to set detailed security policies for all devices in your network. Designate your encryption and authentication methods then monitor your wireless LAN to check all devices for compliance with those policies. Also validate that the encryption methods themselves function correctly over the WLAN. Establish an even higher level of organized security by designating a list of approved APs for client access, and monitoring for exposed wireless stations, ad-hoc devices, and other vulnerabilities.

Perform Live, Interactive Network Tests
In addition to the issues that Laptop Analyzer automatically locates for you, a suite of active troubleshooting tools are available at your fingertips to help you quickly pinpoint network problems—RF interferences, traffic/infrastructure overloads, hardware failures, connectivity issues and more. Test connections with traditional tools such as DHCP, ping, and traceroute or use AirMagnet's Diagnostic Tool to view the step-by-step progress of a connection between a client and AP to pinpoint exactly where the process has broken down. Run AP performance tests to identify mismatched settings in the network, coverage, multi-path interference, jitter and roaming.

Track Down Rogues and Devices
Laptop Analyzer offers a zero-tolerance approach to Rogue Management. The convenient "Find Tool" locks on to a particular AP or station and guides you to the physical location of a device, enabling you to quickly track down rogue APs and non-complying devices. Also use Find Tool to align signals between antennas to quickly optimize reception in line-of-sight bridging.

Detailed Packet and Frame Analysis
Laptop Analyzer shows real-time packet flows for any Wi-Fi asset. Track data and management packets live, watch CRC errors, utilization, packet speed, media type and more. View a real-time decode page for detailed network analysis: Laptop Analyzer decodes the most popular protocols such as FTP, HTTP, SMTP, POP, and Telnet, with advanced filtering options that allow you to focus on particular conversations based on IP address or port number.

Access the AirWISE® Expert
AirWISE® is your encyclopedia source for understanding the threats and performance issues at work in your Wi-Fi environment. All system alarms are explained for you in plain-English detail, including why they are important and what steps you should take to resolve issues.

Sync with Enterprise
AirMagnet's Laptop Analyzer can be fully-integrated with Enterprise to streamline field tasks. IT staff can turn their Laptop Analyzer into a temporary sensor to capture live data and troubleshoot performance and security issues in localized areas. They can also download rules-based policies and alarming procedures from Enterprise, eliminating duplicate work.

Generate Quick Discovery Reports
Laptop Analyzer's Integrated Reporter turns your troubleshooting sessions into professional customized reports. Each page of the user interface enables one-click reporting of the information contained on your screen, with options to include supporting data.
