The Sputnik 720 runs <a href="/web/20090129095256/http://sputnik.com/products/apf.html">Sputnik Agent Pro</a> firmware, and is capable of authenticating a hundred or more concurrent users. </p> <p>Wired and wireless network end-users can be authenticated by the Sputnik 720, as its LAN and WLAN interfaces are bridged together. When used as a network gateway, end-users connected to third-party wireless hardware (in bridge mode) are routed through the Sputnik 720 for authentication. Service providers can leave existing wired and wireless networks in place—whether Wi-Fi, WiMAX, mesh, or other frequency—routing network traffic through the Sputnik 720 for authentication, tracking, and management.
