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:

a If you are directly connecting the MAP to a WX switch, plug the other cable end(s) to the indicated port(s).

b If 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.
