Deployment 43
To physically install MAPs:
1Instruct the cabling installer to run the Cat. 5 Ethernet cable from the
closest wiring closet to intended location of the MAP.
2Unpack the MAP, and select the appropriate mounting kit for your
installation location.
3Install the MAP at the indicated location on the floor.
4Connect the Cat 5. Ethernet cable(s) to the MAP.
5At the wiring closet, connect the MAP to the infrastructure equipment:
aIf you are directly connecting the MAP to a WX switch, plug the other
cable end(s) to the indicated port(s).
bIf you are indirectly connecting the WX to the switch, plug the other
cable end(s) to an available network port on the wiring closet switch.
If the switch does not supply PoE, then ensure that a mid-span PoE
device is inserted in-line with the connection.
Deployment Deployment is when WX configuration information in the 3WXM
network plan is sent to your WX switch.
Configuration changes are collected in 3WXM when you save them, but
are not applied to WX switches until you send the configuration to the
WX switch and deploy the configuration to your network. Any changes
you make to your network in 3WXM are saved, but not applied to your
network until they are deployed. This method makes it easy to apply
configurations simultaneously to multiple WX switches, or you can deploy
changes to a single WX switch.
