Configuring Cisco WLSE and WLSE Rogue Scanning

The Cisco Wireless LAN Solution Engine (WLSE) includes rogue scanning functions that AMP supports. This
section contains the following topics and procedures, and several of these sections have additional sub-
procedures:

Introduction to Cisco WLSE



Configuring WLSE Initially in AMP


Configuring IOS APs for WDS Participation

Configuring ACS for WDS Authentication

Configuring Cisco WLSE Rogue Scanning

You must enter one or more CiscoWorks WLSE hosts to be polled for discovery of Cisco devices and rogue AP
information.
Introduction to Cisco WLSE
Cisco WLSE functions as an integral part of the Cisco Structured Wireless-Aware Network (SWAN)
architecture, which includes IOS Access Points, a Wireless Domain Service, an Access Control Server, and a
WLSE. In order for AMP to obtain Rogue AP information from the WLSE, all SWAN components must be
properly configured.
