Chapter 6 Performing Administrative Tasks

Using Discovery and Managing Devices

Note You can only manage a total of 525 access points and wireless bridges. After you have placed 500 of these devices into the Managed folder, warning messages are displayed each time you place more devices in the folder. After the 525 limit is reached, no more devices can be placed in the Managed folder, although discovery continues after the limit is reached.

Step 4 After you move devices to the managed state, inventory is run for those devices. This ensures that device attributes appear in displays, such as reports and system-defined groups without waiting for the next inventory cycle. For information about running an immediate inventory, see Running Inventories, page 6-24.

Note When auto-manage is enabled, after devices are discovered an inventory is run automatically for the auto-managed devices. For more information about auto-manage, see Enable Discovery Options, page 6-18.

Step 5 To view details about a device, select the device from the device selector. The Device Details pane appears. You can change the device’s status by using the Manage and Unmanage buttons.

Note Some details may not be displayed if the corresponding parameters are not set on the device; for example, Location and Contact.

The details in the Device Details pane are as follows:
