PlanningOverview
Launching the Planning and Editing Tools
Create a new Campus/Building Create a floor you want to plan for (import floor plan) Pick Planning Mode or Map Editor from the drop-down menu

Planning ModeHigh-Level Options


Add AP: Allows adding new Access Points to the Map
Delete AP: Remove existing Access Points from the Map Map Editor: Edit the floor plan to draw objects such as light/thick walls, light/heavy doors, cubicles, glass, coverage areas, perimeters, markers, etc. Synchronize with Deployment: Pull in currently deployed and placed Access Points on the floor to tweak existing deployment Generate Proposal: Generates a document that maybe provided to a 3rd party deployment company; additionally, also provides various heatmaps

Planning ToolOptions
Specify AP Prefix and AP Placement method (automatic vs. manual) Selecting AP type determines the antenna choices available for both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz band Select the protocol (band) and minimum desired throughput per band thats required for this plan Enable planning mode for advance options for data, voice, location and others

Location with monitor-mode factors in AP(s) that could be deployed to augment location accuracy Both the Demand and Override options allow for planning for any special cases where theres a highdensity of client presence such conference rooms or lecture halls

Data and Voice provide safety margins for design help. Safety margins help design for certain RSSI thresholds (detailed in online help). Location typically requires a denser deployment than data and the location checkbox helps plan for the advertised location accuracy

What Are They?
An easy way to group controllers logically Manage devices with similar configurations
Extract templates from existing controller or WCS to provision Schedule Configuration sets

Cascade Reboot

Manage Mobility Groups, DCA, and Configuration Auditing

When Would You Use Them?


Group sites together for easier management for:
Mobility Groups
DCA and Regulatory Domain Settings Schedule remote configuration changes

Groups sites to ensure compliance with configuration policies

12

Configuration-Groups How-To: Setup

Select and add later: Only create the config group and then add controllers and templates at another time Copy Templates from controller: Copy templates from one of the controllers currently in WCS and then apply them to controllers in this config group. Note, if controllers templates are not already discovered, they can be discovered from the Configure Controllers page
BRKAGG-2011 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Public

13

Configuration-Groups How-To: Setup

Adding Controllers: Controllers in WCS are presented and can be moved over to the newly config group Applying Templates: Discovered or already present template(s) can then be applied to controller Auditing: Ensure template-based audit is selected in audit settings and then audit controllers in group to ensure they comply with policies
BRKAGG-2011 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Public

14

Configuration-Groups: Things to Remember


Template order is very important!
Background audit is performed during network and controller audit Background audit and audit enforcement can only run when template-based audit is selected (under AdministrationSettings) WLC(s) may be part of multiple configuration groups so be careful while setting mobility group names

What Is Auto-Provisioning?
Ability to automatically detect and configure new WLCs (locally or at remote sites) Allows detection based on multiple criterion: Hostname, MAC Address or Serial number

Adds WLC to WCS for further configuration after provisioning

When Would You Use It?


Large distributed deployments

Limited IT resources
Streamline operations and eliminate configuration mismatches

Auto-Provisioning with WCS

Monitor Only: Controllers matched by this filter will not be configurable by WCS in the auto provision process Filter Mode: Choose from hostname, MAC Address or Serial number to match the WLC Config Group Name: Add the auto-provisioned WLC(s) to their own config group for easier management since these might share common policies Input Device: Select from single or multiple devices to provision. Selecting CSV option provides a link to download a sample file to understand the syntax. Device Configuration: Other device parameters that can be configured at this stage.

After hitting Submit, the filter is saved with one entry for the member you just added. At this point, you may add other members (WLCs) to this filter as well. This filter also creates a WLC config file in WCSs TFTP directory. Ensure your DHCP servers option 150 points to WCS Server

WCS Virtual Domains


What They Are (or do) Quick way to partition WCS objects What Theyre Not (or dont do) Not necessarily a complete replacement for RBAC (for example, via TACACS+) If none specified, users are added to the root virtual domain by default Dont separate Google Earth Maps, AutoProvisioning, MSEs, and Ethernet Switches

Allows users to be mapped to separate virtual domains at the time of creation Separate Reports, Controllers, Access Points, Search, Templates, Config Groups, Alarms and other objects Objects may be assigned to multiple domains at the same time root domain is a superset of all subdomains Only the root domain may location, and any other email notifications

Avoid changing configurations from multiple domains management simple Not all objects are available at the root level objects such as Search and Reports are domain specific For more caveats, visit: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/w cs/5.2/configuration/guide/5_2virtual.html

MonitoringAlarms and Events


What Are Events?
An occurrence of a condition (or change in condition) in the network managed by WCS Not necessarily generated for every condition but could be a result of a pattern or threshold match by the WLC Events may not be useful in their raw form (unless troubleshooting, for example) and usually need further processing

What Are Alarms?


Correlated events result in alarms (WCS allows looking up event history for alarms) Both Alarms and Events are categorized by severities

AlarmsThings to Remember
Its common to ignore email configuration in WCS WCS sends email notifications for Major events only! Acknowledged alarms suppress email notifications even if the severity changes Help! My alarms seem to have disappeared!
Alarms that get cleared move in to the Cleared state so be sure to check cleared alarms (or look under event history)

Clearing an alarm does not remove it from WCS database (deleting it does) Alarm severities can be customized from Administration SettingsAlarms Alarm acknowledgement works on individual alarm instance (and not on category or condition) Even if traps are disabled on WLC, WCS could generate alarms from the regular polling it performs

Client Troubleshooting Tool


An easy way to identify client-related issues from within WCS, without the need for extensive WLC debugs
Look at the clients current state (and at what stage of the connection they might be having issues at) Allows for real-time troubleshooting and log retrieval from the WLC Allows for looking up historical, and relevant client and AP events Allows integration with ACS View Server for authentication log retrieval

But, first things firstcommon problems:


Watch out for misconfigured clients (common areas are WLAN profile settings, authentication and encryption settings, and any advanced extensions that might not be required Ensure WLC settings match the provisioned client profiles (security, SSID broadcast, WLAN override, etc.) Ensure data rate settings on the WLC (Mandatory, Supported and Disabled rates) Look for client exclusion settings (easy way to find excluded clients is via the quick filter in MonitorClients page

High-Availability Components and Operation


At the heart of the high-availability design is the Health Monitor (HM) Process
Other components in WCS are JVM (WCS), Database, and Apache webserver

HM is sub-divided into smaller components:


Core HM: Configures, maintains state and starts/stops the HA configuration across WCS servers Heartbeat: Responsible for maintaining communication between the primary and secondary servers (over HTTPS, port 8082); timeout is set to two seconds, with three retries Application Monitor: Communicates with the WCS framework components on the primary server

DB Monitor: Configures database replication


File Sync: Identifies file changes, compression, and statistics maintenance

BRKAGG-2011

2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved.

Cisco Public

73

High-AvailabilityThings to Know
Both the primary and failover WCS servers should run the same software version Both the primary and failover WCS servers should be running on the same OS type (cant mix Windows and Linux installs) Email server and receiver must be configured (used for notifications) Communication between the primary and failover WCS must be enabled on HM port if firewall is in the path Failover mode must be carefully selected (and remembered): manual vs. automatic Authentication key is created during the install, and is used by the primary and failover WCS servers for communication (and also logging into the HMweb page) HM available at: https://ip.address:HMport (example: https://10.10.10.200:8082)
