Services · Wi-Fi Enterprise & 802.1X
Enterprise Wi-Fi & access control (802.1X) without “dead zones”
We design and implement enterprise Wi-Fi networks for offices, warehouses and commercial spaces: stable coverage, predictable roaming, separate staff/guest/IoT networks and secure 802.1X access integrated with AD/NPS/RADIUS.
What type of organizations is this service for?
Wi-Fi becomes critical infrastructure when you can no longer work without it: production applications, warehouse picking, POS, call center or hybrid work.
- Companies with open-space offices, meeting rooms and hybrid working.
- Warehouses and logistics, where mobile terminals must have stable roaming.
- Multi-location retail with Wi-Fi for staff, POS, label printers and customers.
- Educational campuses or spaces with many simultaneous users.
6-Step Methodology for Enterprise Wi-Fi & 802.1X
- 1
Inventory & context
We collect floor plans, the type of activity (office, warehouse, retail), critical applications, number of simultaneous users, and existing Wi-Fi equipment (if any).
- 2
Site survey & design RF
We conduct a survey (predictive or on-site), analyze obstacles, interference, and AP positioning. The result: a signal map and a clear plan for equipment placement.
- 3
Security Design & 802.1X
We define SSIDs, VLANs, role-based access and integration with AD/NPS/RADIUS or PKI. We establish rules for staff, guest, IoT and administrative access.
- 4
Pilot implementation & roaming testing
We are starting a pilot in a representative area: we are testing signal, throughput, roaming, and 802.1X authentication with real production devices.
- 5
Gradual rollout & controlled migration
We are expanding the configuration across all zones, working on planned windows. We are moving clients to the new SSIDs and making adjustments based on real feedback from the field.
- 6
Continuous monitoring & optimization
We integrate Wi-Fi into the monitoring system (Zabbix/Grafana or vendor platform), define useful alerts, and review errors, load, and user complaints quarterly.
Layers in a healthy enterprise Wi-Fi design
We look at Wi-Fi in layers: RF, access, security, identity, and operation. Each layer has its role, and together they create the final “make or break” experience.
| Layer | Focus | Recommended practice |
|---|---|---|
| RF & coverage | Signal, interference, AP positioning | Site survey, planned channels, balanced powers, APs placed according to usage, not just "uniformly". |
| SSID & VLAN | Separation of traffic types | Separate SSID for staff, guest, IoT, production; clear VLAN mapping at switch & firewall level. |
| Identity & 802.1X | Who is allowed on the network and how? | Integration with AD/NPS/RADIUS, account or certificate authentication, group policies and device posture (where possible). |
| Guest & BYOD | Temporary access and personal devices | Captive portal, limited bandwidth, Internet-only access, clear BYOD rules and automatic access expiration. |
| Observability | Network status & user experience | Dashboards with APs, clients, errors, retry rates, roam events, plus alerts on recurring issues. |
| Operation & support | Day-to-day working mode | Runbooks for incidents (AP down, area with complaints, SSID not working), changes made in a controlled manner, with rollback. |
Typical vendors: Cisco, Cisco Meraki, HPE Aruba, plus integration with Active Directory / NPS / RADIUS and monitoring platforms already used in your infrastructure.
What we deliver at the end of a Wi-Fi & 802.1X project
- Wi-Fi coverage map and RF design document (APs, channels, powers).
- Implemented and tested Wi-Fi controller / cloud configurations (SSIDs, VLANs, policies).
- 802.1X integration with AD/NPS/RADIUS or existing identity infrastructure.
- Set of dashboards and alerts for APs, clients, errors and performance.
- Runbooks for typical incidents (area X has no signal, device Y does not connect, poor roaming).
Optionally, we can also provide continuous Wi-Fi monitoring & tuning services, integrated with your monitoring and observability package.
NIS2 & Network Architecture
Arhitectura de rețea și Wi-Fi-ul enterprise contează în NIS2
NIS2 nu se limitează la politici și documentație. Directiva cere reziliență operațională, segmentare corectă and limitarea propagării incidentelor. O rețea bine proiectată — LAN, WAN și Wi-Fi enterprise — este esențială pentru a demonstra controlul și continuitatea serviciilor critice.
De la separarea traficului și autentificare sigură (802.1X), până la redundanță și izolare pe zone, toate aceste elemente sunt evaluate indirect în contextul conformității NIS2.
Do you want to stop hearing "Wi-Fi isn't working again"?
Send us your floor plans and a brief context (space type, number of users, critical applications), and we will propose a clear enterprise Wi-Fi architecture: coverage, security, 802.1X, and day-to-day operation.
