Defining AWMS Network Settings
The next step in configuring AWMS is to confirm the AMP network settings. Define these settings by navigating
to the AMP Setup > Network page. Figure 16 illustrates the contents of this page.

Perform the following steps to define the AWMS network settings:
Maximum Number of
Audit Processes
3 Increases the number of processes that audit configurations for your devices,
as an option. The optimal setting for your network depends on the resources
available, especially RAM. Contact Dell support if you are considering
increasing this setting for your network.
Verbose Logging of
SNMP Configuration
No Enables or disables logging detailed records of SNMP configuration
information.
SNMP Rate Limiting
for Monitored
Devices
No When enabled, AWMS fetches SNMP data more slowly, potentially reducing
device CPU load. Dell PowerConnect W recommends enabling this global
setting when monitoring Dell PowerConnect W controllers only if your network
contains a majority of legacy controllers (800, 2400, 5000, controllers that use
Supervisor Module II). If your network mainly uses newer processors (3000
series, 600 series, the M3 module in the 6000 series), Aruba strongly
recommends disabling this setting.
RAPIDS Processing
Priority
Low Defines the processing and system resource priority for RAPIDS in relation to
AWMS as a whole.
When AWMS is processing data at or near its maximum capacity, reducing the
priority of RAPIDS can ensure that processing of other data (such as client
connections and bandwidth) is not adversely impacted.
The default priority is Low. You can also tune your system performance by
changing group poll periods.
