Network

WiFi infrastructure is one of the most important item to have a good experience with ATS , so we will list here some tips that will help you on having a good wireless network.

  • Use Wireless controller to manage the APs and give a good balance of the clients.
  • The wireless network must use at least Cliente Isolation to keep the network broadcast under control.
  • Don’t use more than 40% of the AP capacity if you want good quality.
  • High Density APs is a good idea when you have a great concentration of people.

On the default configuration each app connected will use 58.8 kbit/s. Changing to the lowest quality will use 15.8 kbit/s.

We will list here some brands that using correctly will help you to have a good experiencie in you wireless network:

  • Cisco
  • Ruckus
  • HP

Danger

You should not use home wireless devices in your enterprise wireless network.

DNS

A local dns server is used to rewrite some names pointing the local ATS server, so when anyone open the app on the network the app will connect on the local server to get the translation audio. On the table below you can see the names that you need to rewrite.

host ip
android.localnet LOCAL ATS SERVER IP
ios.localnet LOCAL ATS SERVER IP
adventisttranslator.iatec.com LOCAL ATS SERVER IP

Internet

The ATS works locally on your network, but a internet connection is important in case of someone need to download the App.
