Classifying Dell Devices in Client Detail
If you have deployed Dell Networking W-Series controllers and have WMS Offload enabled on the network, the Clients
> Client Detail page allows you to classify the device in the Device Information section, and to push this configuration
to the controllers that govern the devices. The classifications are as follows:
l Unclassified—Devices are unclassified by default.
l Valid—If the Protect Valid Stations option is enabled, this setting designates the device as a legitimate network
device. When this Valid setting is pushed, this setting prevents valid stations from connecting to a non-valid AP.
l Contained—When this status is pushed to the device, Dell Networking W-Series will attempt to keep it contained
from the network.
You can classify the user regardless of whether WMS Offload is enabled. If WMS Offload is enabled, the classification
will get pushed to the controller.
Quick Links for Clients on Dell Devices
In Clients > Client Detail, the following two drop-down menus appear next to the Save button in the Device Info
section:
l Open controller web UI: A drop-down menu that allows you to jump to the controller’s UI in a new window. Thin
APs link to Controller > Access Points when not operating in mesh mode, or Controller > Mesh Nodes otherwise.
