Remaining Manual Admin Tasks in AMP
The Admin will then complete the following tasks in AMP:
1. Enable the newly created Admin User Role in AMP Setup > Roles, as shown in Figure 232.
Figure 232 Enable Admin User Role in AMP Setup > Roles
2. In Groups > Template for the newly created Acme group, verify the first Virtual Controller's auto-created
template.
3. Evaluate, approve, or ignore incoming Virtual Controllers with a different top level Organization String and/or
Shared Secret in the APs/Devices > New list. Subsequent IAPs are auto-authorized if they have an
Organization/Shared Secret key that matches the Shared Secret key of any existing authorized Virtual
Controller in the top-level Organization String.
4. Set the initial Virtual Controller to Manage Read/Write mode and push the good configuration to the
subsequent IAPs.
5. Set up AMP users to have access to specific folders, if desired.
AMP Pages with Instant-Specific Features
The following is a summary of AMP pages affected by Dell PowerConnect W-Instant support:
 APs/Devices > New
When an Dell PowerConnect W-Instant device appears in the APs/Devices > New page, an admin user can
mouse over the value on the Type column to display the device's Shared Secret with AMP.
 APs/Devices > List
The Virtual Controller is listed as an additional device, even though it is part of the existing set of IAPs. You
can identify the IAP acting as the Virtual Controller by their identical LAN MAC addresses.
 Clients > Client Detail
Once IAPs are serving clients, the IAPs can use user-agent strings to extract operating systems and device
descriptions of its clients, and then populate the Device Description and Device OS fields in Clients >
Client Detail.
 APs/Devices > Audit
Dell PowerConnect W-Instant configuration fetching can be performed in APs/Devices > Audit. The
running configuration is stored on the IAP and verified by the template.
NOTE: The auto-created template is most useful if the first Virtual Controller for the top-level Organization String is fully
configured on-site before it is pointed at AMP in the Virtual Controller's UI.
