Network Management Planning
Network management can be performed using any of the following methods:
 Centralized Web-based management, using the optional Xirrus
Management System (XMS). XMS-Cloud provides zero-touch
provisioning and ongoing management. XMS is hosted on a dedicated
Xirrus appliance or your own server. XMS manages large Wireless AP
deployments from a centralized Web-based interface and offers the
following features:
 Globally manage large numbers of APs
 Seamless view of the entire wireless network
 Easily configure large numbers of APs
 Rogue AP monitoring
 Easily manage system-wide firmware updates
 Monitor performance and trends
 Aggregation of alerts and alarms
 The AP’s Command Line Interface, using an SSH (Secure Shell) utility,
like PuTTY. The utility must be set up to use SSH-2, since the AP will only
allow SSH-2 connections.
 Web-based management, using the AP’s embedded Web Management
Interface (WMI). This method provides configuration and basic
monitoring tools, and is good for small deployments (one or two units).
