10) Zero-Touch Provisioning and Ongoing Management
Most customers employ the Xirrus Management System (XMS) for the initial setup and
continuing management of Xirrus devices. XMS users can readily set up their new devices for
zero-touch provisioning and ongoing maintenance via the following platforms.
XMS Cloud Next Generation (XMS-CL-9500-x)
XMS in the Cloud performs zero-touch provisioning as shown in this quick video guide:

. Your new Arrays/APs
appear in XMS even before you receive your equipment. When the email arrives with your
login information, use XMS Cloud to specify the initial settings for your Arrays/APs.
A Guided Tour will walk you through the basic steps of creating a profile containing
configuration settings, including creating SSIDs and firewall/application control rules. Once
the installed Array/AP has Internet connectivity, it will automatically contact Xirrus for
cloud-based zero-touch provisioning per your settings, install the latest applicable license,
and upgrade the Array/AP to the latest software version as appropriate.
XMS Enterprise
(Also available as a Cloud-deployed solution: XMS-9000-CL-x) This platform automatically
detects and provisions new Xirrus devices deployed in your network via a similar zero-
touch provisioning approach. Create and configure a default profile for newly added
Arrays/APs – these new devices will automatically receive the configuration defined in your
default profile.
If you are not using XMS, new devices can be auto-provisioned via the Xirrus Mobilize platform
(pre-order required) as shown in this video:

Training. Your welcome email will contain login/account information.
If you are not using XMS or Mobilize, please see the ArrayOS User Guide to configure your
Array/AP manually via the Express Setup menu option. The User Guide is available from
http://support.xirrus.com
(login required). Select the Librairies tab and click the ArrayOS - XR
Platform Latest Release link.
