Discovering and Managing Devices
Before the WLSE can manage devices, the devices must first be discovered. After
devices are discovered, they must be managed.
The major tasks in discovering and managing devices are listed in the following
table. Detailed procedures follow.
Configuring Discovery Options
Discovery options allow you to enable automatic management of all discovered
devices, specify use of device names in displays, and use MAC address filtering
for management of access points. This step is optional.
To configure discovery options, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Select Devices > Discover > DISCOVER > Advanced Options.
a. If you want device names in WLSE displays, instead of their IP addresses,
select Use Reverse DNS lookup.
b. To enable automatic management for all discovered devices, select
Auto-Manage Devices. Otherwise, you must move devices to the managed
state after they have been discovered.
c. To arrange temporary management of access points, you can configure MAC
filtering. For information, see the online help or the User Guide for the
Wireless LAN Solution Engine, Release 2.5.
d. Click Save.
