Introducing the MSM7xx Controllers
The HP ProCurve Networking MSM7xx Controllers provide centralized management and
control of intelligent HP ProCurve Networking MSM APs distributed throughout a wireless
zone, building, or campus, without the penalty of centralized switching. This significantly
reduces backbone loads since user traffic is switched at the network edge and flows directly
from source to destination. Service controllers handle only network control, management
information, public access interface, and some authentication tasks, making them highly-
scalable, cost-effective solutions.
