with regard to Aruba Configuration, device visibility and user rights are as follows:

controllers, devices, and general Aruba Configuration operations.

administrative user.

procedure. Any component of this setup can be adjusted or revised by referring to the steps and AWMS
pages in this procedure.
6. Add or discover devices for the device folder defined during step 1 of this procedure. Information about
devices is available in the AWMS User Guide.
