Nuclias Connect
Introduction
Nuclias Connect is D-Link’s centralized management solution for Small-to-Medium-Sized Business (SMB) networks. Nuclias Connect makes
it easier to analyze, automate, congure, optimize, scale, and secure your network — delivering the convenience of an Enterprise-wide
management solution, at an SMB price. Nuclias Connect gives you the nancial and technical exibility to expand from a small network to a
larger one of up to 1,000 Access Points (APs), while retaining a robust and centralized management system. With its intuitive Graphical User
Interface (GUI), a wealth of enhanced AP features, and a setup wizard that supports 11 languages, Nuclias Connect minimizes the hassle of
deployment, conguration, and administration tasks.
Deployable on a Windows server (or Linux via Docker), PC, or Smartphone (via lite management app) the Nuclias Connect free-to-download
software is capable of managing up to 1,000 APs without licensing charges, coupled with an inexpensive optional
hardware controller (DNH-100 Nuclias Connect Hub) suitable for remote locations. Through software-based monitoring and remote
management of all wireless Access Points (APs) on your network, Nuclias Connect oers tremendous exibility compared to traditional
hardware-based unied management systems. Conguration can be done remotely. Network trac analytics are available at a glance (in
whole or in part). Load Balancing, Airtime Fairness, and Localized Throttling are enabled.
Nuclias Connect supports multi-tenancy, so network administrators can grant localized management authority for local networks. In
addition, because APs can support 8 SSIDs per radio (16 SSIDs per dual band APs), administrators have the option of using one SSID to create
a guest network for visitors.
Nuclias Connect provides direct AP discovery and provisioning when it shares the same Layer-2/Layer-3 network with a given AP, allowing
users to nd APs and import proles with minimum eort, which can be applied as needed to groups or individual APs for even more
eective conguration.
Since Nuclias Connect’s software operates transparently on the network, an AP can be deployed anywhere in an NAT environment. Admins
can provide and manage a variety of distributed deployments, including settings and admin account conguration for each deployment.
Nuclias Connect allows for multiple user authentications while enabling specic access control congurations for each SSID, giving admins
the option of conguring separate internal networks for dierent subnets, while enabling more advanced Value-Added Services, such as
Captive Portal or Wi-Fi Hotspot.
