354CHAPTER 10: MONITORING THE NETWORK

 

The 3WXM service is configured to provide data for the Explore and

 

Status Summary windows by default. To provide data to the client and RF

 

windows, you must enable the service to poll WX switches for client and

 

RF data. You also can enable the service to receive SNMP traps generated

 

by the WX switches. (See “Changing Monitoring Settings” on page 489.)

 

 

Requirements for

To enable the 3WXm service to monitor network data, you or the 3WXM

Monitoring

services administrator must specify the WX switches to monitor. The

 

3WXM service collects data from the switches and updates the

 

information in the windows of the Monitor tab on 3WXM clients.

 

To specify the WX switches to monitor, you upload their configuration

 

into 3WXM or add them to the network plan. In addition, SNMP traps

 

must be enabled on the WX switches.

 

By default, the 3WXM service supplies data to all of the windows within

 

the Monitoring tab. This data is refreshed at regular intervals, according

 

to the polling interval configured for the 3WXM service. The default

 

polling interval is 5 minutes.

 

You can optionally disable the 3WXM service from supplying data to

 

specified windows. To configure the 3WXM service for monitoring, see

 

“Changing Monitoring Settings” on page 489. To enable SNMP traps on

 

WX switches, see ““Configuring SNMP” on page 208:
