Deploying WMS Offload
The Dell Networking W-Series Wireless LAN Management Server (WMS) feature is an enterprise-level hardware
device and server architecture with managing software for security and network policy.
WMS components include:
l Air monitor. This operating mode provides wireless IDS, rogue detection and containment.
l WMS server. This server manages devices and network activity, such as rogue detection and network policy
enforcement.
l W-AirWave WebUI. This graphical user interface (GUI) provides access to the WMS offload feature.
Refer to the Dell Networking W-W-AirWave8.2.4 Best Practices Guide at dell.com/support/manuals for
additional information, including detailed concepts, configuration procedures, restrictions, ArubaOS
infrastructure, and W-AirWave version differences in support of WMS Offload.
WMS Offload Configuration
WMS offload places the burden of the WMS server data and GUI functions on W-AirWave. WMS master
controllers provide this data so that W-AirWave can support rigorous network monitoring capabilities.
