Chapter 1 Getting Started

Understanding the WLSE User Interface

The WLSE works by gathering fault, performance, and configuration information about Cisco devices that it discovers in your network. The devices must be properly configured for discovery. After devices are discovered, you decide which devices to manage with the WLSE.

Understanding the WLSE User Interface

When you log into the WLSE through the World Wide Web, the set of features (tabs and subtabs) displayed in the UI depends on the roles assigned to your user login. A user with system administrator privileges can access the features in all of the tabs and subtabs, while other users may see only a subset of features. For more information about user roles, see Managing Roles, page 6-75.

Note The WLSE UI times out after 30 minutes of inactivity and you must log in again. The timeout is not configurable.

This section describes the following aspects of the UI:

The dashboard, including the tabs, subtabs, and buttons in the upper right corner—See The WLSE Dashboard, page 1-2.

How device names and IP addresses are displayed in the WLSE GUI—See Device Name and IP Address Display, page 1-5.

The way the WLSE displays timestamps—See Time Display, page 1-5.

The WLSE Dashboard

The WLSE dashboard consists of:

Tabs and subtabs that provide access to specific functions (see Tabs and Subtabs, page 1-3).

Buttons in the upper right corner that provide general functions (see Buttons, page 1-4).
