STEP 1
Install TanazaOS
Install TanazaOS on your device
Tanaza is vendor-agnostic and works with a wide range of access points, indoor or outdoor, desktop or ceiling-mountable, with or without POE.
Before you get started, choose an access point from the TanazaOS compatible device list and follow the instructions to install the TanazaOS firmware.
Consider that each device has its own instructions depending on different hardware specifics. Our instructions will guide you through the entire process.
STEP 2
Create a network
Organize your access points into networks
Once you have created an account, with Tanaza you can easily cluster your access points in one or more groups, called Networks.
A Network can contain any number of access points, in a single, or in multiple locations, (like a hotel chain, for example). There’s no limit on the number of Networks that can be created, and no limit on the number of access points within in them.
You are free to group them as you like, creating a Network based on a specific location, or for a specific customer, including all of his venues in it.
To create a new Network, click on the ‘Create Network’ button in the main page, select a name and an icon, for easy sorting, and click Save.
STEP 3
Add Access Points
Add and configure online and offline access points
Once you have created a Network, you will be asked to add the first access point. You can add a brand new access point to your organization or select one that has been previously added to your Inventory.
The inventory is a temporary stock where you can store your access points while they are not in use.
You can also add an offline device to your network.
It will be automatically synchronized with the network’s configuration, as soon as it goes online.
STEP 4
Create a WiFi SSID
Create and associate a
WiFi SSID
From the Network main menu, go into the SSIDs section, and click on “New SSID”.
Once you’ve created the SSID, add a name, selected an authentication method, and select which access points within the Network will broadcast it.
By default, this will be transmitted by all of the access points within the Network.
Once created, you can also edit general settings, such as Client IP assignment (NAT or Bridge mode), as well as security settings, like isolation from LAN and Client isolation.
STEP 5
Invite members
Work together with your collaborators
Invite a new member to join your networks.
To add one or more collaborators to your networks, click on ‘Members’, on the top right hand of the menu bar.
Extend the control of your deployments to more people and simultaneously manage in an efficient way the roles assigned to each of them. You can also set permission levels that allow them to configure or just view specific networks.
Create your account
Create your Tanaza account, install TanazaOS on your compatible devices and start managing them from the cloud.
