Action Description

Planned Maintenance

Mode

Puts the selected devices into Planned Maintenance. During the maintenance mode, no AP

Down triggers will be deployed on these devices. Users will not be able to delete folders that

contain devices in Planned Maintenance. The devices in Planned Maintenance will show the

Up status, but will not be tracked in historical graphs and logs as Up.

Desired Radio Status Enables or disables the radios on the selected device. Does not apply Cisco IOS APs.

Cisco Thin AP Settings

Bulk configuration for per-thin AP settings, previously configured on the Group LWAPP AP

tab, can be performed from Modify Devices on the APs/Devices List page. Make changes to

LWAPP AP groups, including the option that was under Modify Devices.

Poll selected devices

Polls selected devices for current user count and bandwidth data; overrides default poll

settings for the group. Polling numerous devices may create a temporary performance load

on your AirWave server.

Audit selected devices

Fetches the current configuration from the device and compares it to the desired AirWave

configuration. The audit action updates the Configuration Status.

NOTE: In versions of AirWave prior to 7.3, the Audit button appeared on Groups > List for

groups with audit disabled. Now, if a group has audit disabled for its devices, AirWave does

not show the Audit button in the Modify devices list.

Run report on selected

devices

Takes you to the Reports > Definitions page where you can define or run a custom report for

selected devices. For more details and a procedure, see "Using Custom Reports" on page

239.

Update the credentials AMP

uses to communicate with

these devices

Update changes the credentials AirWave uses to communicate with the device. It does not

change the credentials on the AP.

Add Maintenance Window

Automate the manual action of putting the selected devices into Manage mode at once so

that changes can be applied, and after the maintenance period is over, the devices

automatically revert to Monitor-Only mode.

Maintenance windows can be set as a one-time or recurring event.

Delete all Maintenance

Windows

Deletes all maintenance windows set for these devices.

Import settings from

selected devices (and

discard current pre-device

desired settings)

Audit updates a number of the AP-specific settings that AirWave initially read off of the AP

including channel, power, antenna settings and SSL certifications. AirWave recommends

using this setting if APs have been updated outside of AirWave. Most settings on the

APs/Devices Manage configuration page are set to the values currently read off of the

devices.

Reboot selected devices

Reboots the selected devices. Use caution when rebooting devices because this can disrupt

wireless users.

Reprovision selected Dell

devices

Configures the controller to send provisioning parameters such as radio, antenna, and IP

address settings to the selected APs. Please note that APs will be rebooted as part of

reprovisioning.

Replace Hardware

Select the down device that will be replaced and view the list of AirWave devices that match

the name or IP address of the selected device. The down devices can be replaced with any

device in the New Devices list or in the current folder or group.

Upgrade firmware for

selected devices

Upgrades firmware for the selected devices. Refer to the firmware upgrade help under

APs/Devices > Manage configuration page for detailed help on Firmware job options.
