Creating a Remote Repository

A remote repository can serve as the repository for one or more Wireless LAN Solution Engines. The remote repository can be either:

A WLSE functioning as the remote repository for other WLSEs.

A Windows NT or Windows 2000 server. A remote repository created on a Windows NT or Windows 2000 server will be temporary; it will not exist after the server reboots.

 

Note

If you are using a Wireless LAN Solution Engine as a remote repository, see

 

 

Creating a Local Repository, page 6-50.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Procedure

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 1

Download the ZIP file containing the update. The latest updates can be found at

 

 

ftp.cisco.com.

 

Step 2

Extract the file to any empty directory. For example, extract the file to

 

 

C:\wlse\wlse_repository.

 

Step 3

Open a command window and enter the following command:

 

 

subst <drive2:><drive1:>\<path>

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note Drive2 is a virtual drive. It will be removed after you reboot the

 

 

 

 

Windows 2000 or Windows NT server.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 4

Open <drive2:>.

 

Step 5

If Autoplay is enabled, the autorun.bat file will automatically run. If it does not,

 

 

double-click it. A browser window opens, displaying the Appliance Update

 

 

screen.
