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
