Manage Integration with Cisco WLC
Configure integration with Cisco wireless LAN Controller (WLC) using the Configuration>WIPS>WLAN
Integration>Cisco WLC Integration option.
The WLC governs a collection of thin AP. LWAPP defines the network protocol between the APs and
WLC. The advantages of this solution are as follows.

Increased scalability
 Simplified, centralized management
 Zero-touch AP deployment and configuration
 Network-wide monitoring
The Cisco Unified WLAN architecture consists of Wireless LAN Controllers (WLC) and APs. The APs are
managed using Light Weight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP). At any time, the WLC has all the
information about the APs and devices seen or associated with these APs.
Integration with Cisco WLC allows the system to fetch this information from WLC. Using this information
the system can automatically classify devices managed by WLC and do location tracking of devices seen
by LWAPP APs in sensor-less or sensor and AP mixed environment.
Important!: Currently, the system supports the following managed APs: Cisco Aironet 1000 Series, Cisco
Aironet 1100 Series, Cisco Aironet 1130 Series, Cisco Aironet 1140 Series, Cisco Aironet 1200 Series,
Cisco Aironet 1230 AG Series, Cisco Aironet 1240 AG Series, Cisco Aironet 1250 Series, and Cisco
Aironet 1300 Series. The system supports WLC version 4.2.x to 8.0.
Select the WLC Integration enabled check box to enable AirTight Management Console to obtain data
from the configured WLCs, which are individually enabled.
If you select WLC Integration Enabled check box, you can configure Automatic Synchronization
Settings. AirTight WIPS disables WLC by default. However, automatically enables WLC Integration when
you add a new WLC.
Current Status displays the Current Status of the WLC that is whether it is Running or Stopped.
An Error status is shown in one of the following cases.

One of the configured and enabled WLCs has a hostname, which cannot be resolved.
 One of the configured and enabled WLCs is not reachable.
 System server is stopped.
 Internal error, in which case you need to contact Technical Support.
The Imported APs percentage indicates total number of APs imported from WLC(s) as a fraction of
maximum allowed. The maximum allowed depends on type of appliance. The status displayed is as of the
last synchronization event. It is recommended that the utilization remains below 80%. If the utilization
