WLAN Management System
WLAN Management System (WMS) is a powerful network management system
that is fully compatible with the industry-standard Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP). It features:
•
Automatic discovery of all compatible devices that are configured within the
same subnet
•
Individual and batch-mode remote management of compatible devices,
including Multi-Monitor, Batch-Upgrade, Batch-Reset, and Batch-Load
Default functions. Batch-mode operation is ideal when deploying multiple
compatible products.
•
A friendly end-user interface with a consistent look and feel.
Automatic Discovery of Compatible Devices
A powerful auto-discovery algorithm is built into WMS. With a simple click on the
Auto Discovery icon, all compatible devices within the subnet will be discovered.
This discovery feature is based on the following techniques:
•
DHCP client and IP recovery: The Outdoor AP has a built-in DHCP client,
and will request an IP address from a DHCP server so that SNMP
management can be carried out. Should there be a failure of the DHCP server,
the Outdoor AP will auto-assign itself an IP address (see next) and then
automatically negotiate for a new IP address when the server recovers.
•
Auto-IP: When the Outdoor AP cannot get an IP address from a DHCP
server, it will auto-assign itself an IP address of 169.254.x.x and a subnet
mask of 255.255.0.0. A Windows-based system configured as a DHCP client
will use the same algorithm to assign itself an IP address in the same subnet.
When the DHCP server comes back on line, users may need to renew their
stations’ IP settings as described below;
otherwise, Windows may continue
to use the previous IP address instead of executing the auto-IP procedure.
