5.1.3 MasterLink/OMS/Dispatch Integration
The Network.hosts file should contain entries for all Cisco WAPs:
172.17.0.123 mpr123 cisco
172.17.0.120 mpr120 cisco
After adding these entries, reload OMSns with ‘OMSns r’
Modify /dsp/client/psw/OMSrun to contain a line that will start the CiscoDiags daemon:
CiscoDiags&
Verify that MasterLink mobile devices (trucks/shovels/etc.) are getting the network metric information by
connecting via OMStip and typing ‘wan0 status’. If they are getting the information, IP addresses for the
Cisco APs will appear in the list. This metric information is sent to all mobile equipment through a
broadcast message once every 20 seconds.
