Wireless Array
2 Introduction
Xirrus Management System (XMS)
XMS is used for managing large Array deployments from a centralized
Web-based interface. Xirrus offers XMS Cloud—a software as a service
option for XMS, providing zero-touch provisioning and initial startup for
new Array/AP deployments. XMS is capable of managing large numbers
of Arrays, including automated software and firmware upgrades for the
network.
Another option is XMS, hosted on your own server. It manages all aspects
of your Xirrus wireless network. For customers using the XMS-9000-CL-x
Cloud-hosted version, all Array management is performed via the cloud.
For detailed information about XMS, refer to the XMS Users Guide.

switches with IEEE802.3at PoE+, four 1G/10G SFP+ ports, and stacking.
