Implementing the Cisco SWAN Framework
Subsequent to these steps, customers can configure additional parameters like VLANs, SSIDs, and encryption settings. Customers may choose to use the CiscoWorks WLSE to do these configurations in bulk after the CiscoWorks WLSE has discovered the
Managing the WLSM and Access Points with the CiscoWorks WLSE
When WLSM is active and all of the infrastructure access points are registered, the access points must be discovered and managed on the CiscoWorks WLSE. Follow these steps to manage the WLSM:
Step 1 Log into the CiscoWorks WLSE.
Step 2 Navigate to Devices > Discover. Select Managed/Unmanaged in the table of contents on the
Step 3 The WLSM WDS device displays in the New folder on the
Step 4 Select the WLSM and then Manage. The negotiation of security between the WDS and CiscoWorks WLSE begins. After the encryption keys are negotiated, the WDS is interrogated. The WDS device reports its registered access points to the CiscoWorks WLSE. The CiscoWorks WLSE then interrogates the registered access points. This process may take 5 to 10 minutes depending on the number of access points.
The infrastructure access points are managed in the CiscoWorks WLSE by completing Steps 2 through 4.
Note This procedure is unnecessary if the advanced discovery
Validating the Setup
The IOS command line on the WLSM is used to validate the configurations. To validate the WDS configuration, enter this command:
show wlccp wds ap
All registered access points and infrastructure access points are listed.
wlsm# show wlccp wds ap
To validate that the CiscoWorks WLSE is correctly registered, enter this command:
show wlccp wnm status
The CiscoWorks WLSE IP address is listed and Security Keys Setup appears in the status field.
wlsm# show wlccp wnm status
WNM IP Address : 172.20.98.221 Status : SECURITY KEYS SETUP
