Wms Offload Utilizing Awms - Dell PowerConnect W-Airwave Manual

CAUTION: If you don't follow the above steps, local controllers will not be configured to populate statistics. This decreases
AWMS' capability to trend client signal information and to properly locate devices. See
ArubaOS & AWMS Commands" on page 35
infrastructure.
If your credentials are invalid or the changes are not applied to the controller, error messages will display on the
controller's APs/Devices > Monitoring page under the Recent Events section. If the change fails, AWMS does
not audit these setting (display mismatches) and you will need to apply to the controller by hand. See Appendix A
for detailed instructions.
These are the commands pushed by AWMS during Enable Stats (do not enter these commands):
configure terminal
no mobility-manager <Active WMS IP Address>
wms
general collect-stats enable
stats-update-interval 120
show wms general

WMS Offload Utilizing AWMS

To offload WMS on the Dell PowerConnect W controllers using AWMS:
1. Navigate to Groups > Basic and locate the Dell PowerConnect W section.
2. Set the Offload WMS Database field to Yes, as shown previously in
3. Locate the Device Configuration section and enable or disable Allow WMS Offload Configuration in
Monitor-Only Mode.
4. Select Save and Apply. This will push a set of commands via SSH to all Dell PowerConnect W Master
Controllers. If the controller does not have an SNMPv3 user that matches the AWMS database it will
automatically create a new SNMPv3 user. AWMS must have read/write access to the controllers in order to
push these commands.
NOTE: This process will not reboot your controllers. See Appendix A on how to utilize Dell PowerConnect ArubaOS CLI to enable
stats or WMS Offload.
CAUTION: The SNMPv3 user's Auth Password and Privacy Password must be the same.
Do not enter these commands; these are pushed by AWMS during Enable Stats.
configure terminal
mobility-manager <AWMS IP> user <AWMS SNMPv3 User Name> <AWMS Auth/Priv PW>
stats-update-interval 120
write mem
NOTE: AWMS will configure SNMPv2 traps with the mobile manager command.
