Infrastructure Management
Infrastructure management involves:
• Defining how AirDefense interfaces with devices, and
• Providing information to AirDefense so that it can apply the correct regulatory rules to the domain.
The following infrastructure management features are not activated until you install a WLAN
Management license:
• Channel Settings
• Radio Settings
• WLAN Profiles
• CLI Configuration
• Command Run and Log
• Pending State Audit (added to the Operational Management category).
Note
You must configure the Platform before configuring Infrastructure Management.
You must configure all aspects of Infrastructure Management to integrate AirDefense with your
network. These include:
• Create and update device configurations by revising the configuration files and their CLI command
set.
• Specify the passwords to access devices and specify the interfaces that can be used to access
devices.
• Update firmware on devices (if needed).
• Provide information to AirDefense so that it can apply the correct regulatory rules to the domain.
• Select power and channel settings for devices with B/N/G radios and/or A/N radios.
• Configure radios used in your network.
• Configure the WLAN settings for devices utilizing your network.
The following flowchart shows the fundamental steps to configure a device in your network using
AirDefense. Once you configure one device, adding others is much easier. This flowchart shows how to
configure a device and apply the configuration to a floor. Ideally, you would set up AirDefense to
configure devices at the appliance level. Then, the configuration will be available on all network levels
down to the floor level. If you have an exception, you would then override the configuration at a lower
level.
