AP and Client Monitoring
AirWave allows you to find any AP or client on the wireless network and to see real-time
monitoring views. These monitoring views can be used to aggregate critical information and
high-end monitoring information.
In the AirWave User Interface (UI), you can select either
Manage Read/Write
or
Monitor-
only+Firmware Upgrades
as management modes. When the AirWave Management level is
set to
Manage Read/Write
, the SCALANCE W UI is in read-only mode. When the AirWave
Management level is set to
Monitor-only+Firmware Upgrades
, the SCALANCE W UI
changes to the read-write mode.
With the latest version of AirWave, a new option in the AMP is available to put the AP in
config-only mode. In this mode, the AP will receive the firmware upgrades and
configurations, but will not send any statistics for monitoring. The load is reduced on AP and
AirWave and this assists in scaling AirWave effectively.
Template-Based Configuration
AirWave automatically creates a configuration template based on any of the existing APs,
and it applies that template across the network as shown in the following figure. It audits
every device on an ongoing basis to ensure that configurations never vary from the
enterprise policies. It alerts you whenever a violation is detected and automatically repairs
the incorrectly configured devices.
Trending Reports
AirWave saves up to 14 months of actionable information, including network performance
data and user roaming patterns, so you can analyze how network usage and performance
trends have changed over time. It also provides detailed capacity reports with which you can
plan the capacity and appropriate strategies for your organization.
Intrusion Detection System (IDS)
AirWave provides advanced, rules-based rogue classification. It automatically detects rogue
APs irrespective of their location in the network and prevents authorized APs from being
detected as rogue APs. It tracks and correlates the IDS events to provide a complete picture
of network security.
