Perform these steps to discover access points.
1. Go to the Device > Managed Devices > Discovery Wizard page.
2. Import devices from a file.
3. Import devices from Cisco Works.
4. Import using CDP.
Managing Devices
Prior to enabling radio resource management on IOS access points, the access points must be under WLSE management.
AirWave becomes the primary management/monitoring vehicle for IOS access points, but for AirWave to gather Rogue
information, the WLSE must be an NMS manager to the APs.
Use these pages to make such configurations:
1. Go to Device > Discover > Advanced Options.
2. Select the method to bring APs into management Auto, or specify via filter.
Inventory Reporting
When new devices are managed, the WLSE generates an inventory report detailing the new APs. AirWave accesses the
inventory report via the SOAP API to auto-discover access points. This is an optional step to enable another form of AP
discovery in addition to AirWave, CDP, SNMP scanning, and HTTP scanning discovery for Cisco IOS access points.
Perform these steps for inventory reporting.
1. Go to Devices > Inventory > Run Inventory.
2. Run Inventory executes immediately between WLSE polling cycles.
Defining Access
AirWave requires System Admin access to WLSE. Use these pages to make these configurations.
1. Go to Administration > User Admin.
2. Configure Role and User.
Grouping
It’s much easier to generate reports or faults if APs are grouped in WLSE. Use these pages to make such configurations.
1. Go to Devices > Group Management.
2. Configure Role and User.
Configuring IOS APs for WDS Participation
IOS APs (1100, 1200) can function in three roles within SWAN:
l Primary WDS
l Backup WDS
l WDS Member
AirWave monitors AP WDS role and displays this information on AP Monitoring page.
APs functioning as WDS Master or Primary WDS will no longer show up as Down is the radios are enabled.
