298 | Setting Up Dell PowerConnect W-Instant in AirWave Dell PowerConnect W-AirWave 7.4 | User Guide
Receiving the Virtual Controller as a New Device in AMP
After the installer enters this information in the Dell PowerConnect W-Instant user interface, the device will
immediately attempt to contact your AirWave server. Within a few minutes, the New Devices link at the top of
the AMP UI will increase by one - that first IAP is added as an Dell PowerConnect W-Instant Virtual Controller
in the APs/Devices > New page, as shown in Figure 230.

Verifying the Shared Secret and Adding the Device
When an Dell PowerConnect W-Instant device appears in the APs/Devices > New page, the admin user should
mouse over the value under the Type column to verify the device's Shared Secret with AMP, as shown in Figure
231.

If the incoming Shared Secret matches the one you created, select Add, then Save and Apply in the confirmation
page.
AMP parses the information from the Organization String and auto-creates the following in its own interface:
 A new User Role (disabled by default for security reasons) named "Acme Admin"
 A new User named "Acme Admin" with a password equal to the Virtual Controller's Shared Secret
 A new configuration group called "Acme"
 A new folder just under the Top folder called "Acme"
 Rwo subfolders: "New York" and "San Francisco" from subfolder2
 Rwo subfolders under New York: "Times Square Store" and "Queens Store" from subfolder3
 Rwo subfolders under San Francisco: "Sunset Store" and "SOMA Store" from subfolder3
NOTE: With an Organization specified, you do not have to select any Group or Folder from the drop-down menus on the APs/
Devices > New page. In fact, if you do change the Group/Folder drop-down menus, all Organization-specified Virtual
Controllers will ignore these values and will use the folder/group values from the Organization String instead. If you select
Add for some non-Dell PowerConnect WInstant devices as well as some Organization-specified Virtual Controllers, the drop-
down menus will apply to the non-IAPs but not the Virtual Controllers. If you have any Virtual Controllers with no Organization
specified the first time they communicate with AMP, then they will be placed in the Folder/Group drop-box values you have
selected.
