6 Managing Comware-based access
controllers

WSM enables administrators to create and manage AC + fit AP networks through ACs. IMC WSM

automatically manages all ACs that are added to the IMC Platform.

Figure 51 AC + fit AP network

Before you create a new AC + fit APs network in WSM, complete the following tasks:

Configure the AC so that it can access the network.

Connect fit APs to the access device, and make sure the fit APs and the AC can reach each other.

Configure an SNMP community on the AC, and add the AC to the IMC Platform.

HP recommends the following procedures for managing the AC + fit APs network:

1.

Optional: Add fit AP groups, and classify the fit APs into groups. For more information about
configuring fit AP groups, see "

Managing fit AP templates

."

2.

Configure global parameters for the AC. For more information, see "

Viewing AP license

information

."

3.

Optional: Add radio policies for the AC, and bind the radio policies to the radios on each
managed fit AP so the radios can operate correctly. For more information, see "

Configuring a

radio policy

."

4.

Optional: Configure the same parameters for multiple radios in batches on the AC to reduce
repetitive operations and improve efficiency. For more information, see "

Configuring radios in

batches

."

5.

Add WLAN logical interfaces for the AC and modify the port security mode and VLAN for them.
For more information, see "

Configuring WLAN logical interfaces
