CONFIGURING WX SWITCHES

 

 

REMOTELY

You can use 3WXM Services running in your corporate network to configure WX switches in remote offices. The following remote configuration scenarios are supported:

„Drop ship—3WXM Services running in the corporate network can configure a WXR100 switch shipped directly to a remote office. This option does not require any preconfiguration of the switch.

„Staged—You can stage any model of switch by preconfiguring IP connectivity and enabling auto-config, then sending the switch to the remote office. The switch contacts 3WXM Services in the corporate network to complete its configuration.

The drop ship option is supported only for the WXR100. The staged option is supported for all switch models. Both options require 3WXM Services. If you know a switch’s serial number, you can create a complete configuration for the switch in 3WXM. When the switch requests its configuration from 3WXM, 3WXM sends the configuration for that serial number. If you do not know the switch’s serial number, you can upload the partially configured switch into 3WXM, finish its configuration, then deploy the completed configuration back to the switch.
