Folders with a checkmark identifies that folder as having devices that in a pending state. Devices with a
checkmark identifies that device as a device that are in a pending state.
You have the option to save for the next update, update immediately or update later. If you choose to
update later, you must supply a date and time. You can supply a description that will help identify the
update later using Job Status under Device Monitoring. A list of device types along with the number of
aected devices that will be updated is displayed. Also, if applicable, a list of unsupported settings is
displayed.
Appliance Platform
Relay Server is added to Appliance Platform as part of the WLAN Management module.
Relay Server
Define or update the Relay Servers used to access managed devices. Relay Servers are FTP/TFTP
servers that devices access to fetch configuration, firmware, and provisioning information. Use the Relay
Server to set the configurations of both the Device Relay and Appliance Relay Servers.
Note
You can use your appliance as the relay server. To do so, select the Internal Relay Server
option.
Set the following values for Device Relay Server (download):
• Enter the Host name of the relay server AirDefense uses to access and fetch device configurations.
Normally, this is the IP address of the relay server. This can be an internal relay server (your
appliance) or an external relay server.
• Select a protocol from the drop-down menu (FTP, TFTP, SFTP, SCP, HTTP, or HTTPS). If you are
using your appliance as the relay server, you can only use FTP or SFTP.
• Specify the Path AirDefense uses to download information. You should either leave the path blank or
use root (/). Use /pub if you are using your appliance as a relay server.
• Define the Port AirDefense uses to connect to the Device Relay Server. If you are using your
appliance as the relay server, use port 21 when FTP is the selected protocol or port 22 when SFTP is
the selected protocol.
• Enter the Username needed to update the Device Relay Server used by AirDefense.
• Enter the Password required to update the Device Relay Server used by AirDefense.
