Saving or Discarding Configuration Changes
When you select the Policies, RF Planning, or Configuration tool bar
option, the Content panel contains a Save button and a Discard button.
Save—Click Save to send unsaved configuration changes to 3WXM
Services to save in the network plan. The 3WXM client buffers
configuration changes you make to a policy, WX switch, or site until
you click Save or save the network plan. When you click Save, the
client sends all buffered configuration changes.
Discard—Click Discard to undo all buffered changes.
The Save and Discard buttons are greyed out unless there are unsaved
changes.
Configuration wizards have a Finish or OK button, which saves the
configuration items you type or select in the wizard.
When you save changes in a wizard by clicking Finish or OK, the Save
and Discard buttons in the Content panel remain greyed out because
there are no unsaved changes to save or discard.
When you click a link to open a configuration wizard, if there are unsaved
changes, 3WXM prompts you to apply or cancel the changes. Click
Apply to save the buffered changes and open the wizard.
The Save, Apply, Finish, and OK buttons do not send configuration
changes to the WX switches in the network. To send changes made in
the network plan to switches in the network, deploy the changes. (See
"Reviewing and Deploying Switch Configuration Changes".)
Reviewing and Deploying Switch Configuration Changes
3WXM does not automatically deploy switch configuration changes from
the network plan to the actual switches in the network. The following
options in the Task List panel allow you to review and deploy changes:
Review—Displays a categorized list of the undeployed changes.
Deploy—Sends the changes to the network.
When you click Deploy, 3WXM verifies the configuration changes and
displays warnings or errors if applicable. If any errors are listed, 3WXM
does not deploy the changes.
