Defining RAPIDS Rules

The RAPIDS > Rules page is one of the core components of RAPIDS. This feature allows you to define rules by
which any detected device on the network is classified.
This section describes how to define, use, and monitor RAPIDS rules, provides examples of such rules, and
demonstrates how they are helpful.
This section contains the following topics:

Controller Classification with WMS Offload

This classification method is supported only when WMS offload is enabled on Dell PowerConnect W-Series
WLAN switches. Controller classification of this type remains distinct from RAPIDS classification. WLAN
switches feed wireless device information to AMP, which AMP then processes. AMP then pushes the WMS
classification to all of the ArubaOS controllers that are WMS offload enabled.
WMS Offload ensures that a particular BSSID has the same classification on all of the controllers. WMS Offload
removes some load from master controllers and feeds 'connected-to-lan' information to the RAPIDS classification
engine. RAPIDS classifications and controller classifications are separate and often are not synchronized.
NOTE: RAPIDS classification is not pushed to the devices.
