1. To add a Cisco WLSE server to W-AirWave , navigate to the AMP Setup > WLSE page and select Add.
Complete the fields in this page. Table 32 describes the settings and default values.
Setting Default Description
Hostname/IP Address None Designates the IP address or DNS Hostname for the WLSE server,
which must already be configured on the Cisco WLSE server.
Protocol HTTP Specify whether to use HTTP or HTTPS when polling the WLSE.
Port 1741 Defines the port W-AirWave uses to communicate with the WLSE
server.
Username None Defines the user name W-AirWave uses to communicate with the
WLSE server. The user name and password must be configured the
same way on the WLSE server and on W-AirWave.
The user needs permission to display faults to discover rogues and
inventory API (XML API) to discover manageable APs. As derived
from a Cisco limitation, only credentials with alphanumeric
characters (that have only letters and numbers, not other symbols)
allow W-AirWave to pull the necessary XML APIs.
Password None Defines the password W-AirWave uses to communicate with the
WLSE server. The user name and password must be configured the
same way on the WLSE server and on W-AirWave.
As derived from a Cisco limitation, only credentials with
alphanumeric characters (that have only letters and numbers, not
other symbols) allow W-AirWave to pull the necessary XML APIs.

from WLSE rogue scans. As a result of this configuration, any rogues found by WLSE appear on the RAPIDS >
List page.
What Next?
l Go to additional tabs in the AMP Setup section to continue additional setup configurations.
l Complete the required configurations in this chapter before proceeding. Dell support remains available to
you for any phase of W-AirWave installation.
Configuring ACS Servers
This is an optional configuration. The AMP Setup > ACS page allows W-AirWave to poll one or more Cisco ACS
servers for wireless user name information. When you specify an ACS server, W-AirWave gathers information
about your wireless users. Refer to "Setting Up Device Types" on page 59 if you want to use your ACS server to
manage your W-AirWave users.
Perform these steps to configure ACS servers:
1. Go to the AMP Setup > ACS page. This page displays current ACS setup, as illustrated in Figure 24.
