Software Features

The WLSE has the following major features:

Configuration—Allows you to apply configuration changes to access points.

Fault and policy monitoring—Monitors device fault and performance conditions, LEAP server responses, and policy misconfigurations.

Reporting—Allows you to track device, client and security information. You can email, print, and export reports.

Firmware—Allows you to upgrade the firmware on access points and bridges.

Radio management—Helps you manage your WLAN radio environment.

The WLSE operates 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.

The WLSE has two user interfaces:

The Command Line Interface (CLI), which you access by attaching a console to the WLSE or using Telnet or SSH. For information on all the CLI commands, see the User Guide for the CiscoWorks Wireless LAN Solution Engine, Release 2.7.

The Web interface provides access to all device management tasks and most of the management tasks for the WLSE system. For information on using the Web interface, see the WLSE online help or the User Guide for the CiscoWorks Wireless LAN Solution Engine, Release 2.7.
