Wireless Network Management

Overview

In this chapter you will learn how to monitor and manage your wireless

network. You will learn about monitoring:

■ wireless stations associated to this module’s radio ports (RPs)

■ access points (APs) detected by this module’s RPs, both approved and

unapproved

■ logged events

■ alarm logs

When viewing such information in the Web browser interface, you can take

several common actions, such as:

■ clicking a Details button to view more in-depth information

■ clicking an Export button to save the information to your workstation

You will also learn how to configure the module to collect information when

necessary. For example, RPs do not automatically detect other APs. You must

enable this feature and configure the module to manage the information it

receives.

Finally, you will learn how to implement self healing in your wireless network,

maximizing network performance by allowing RP radios to respond to

changing conditions.
