Presentation Notes

Pulling all the management of the Wi-Fi network together is Cisco’s Wireless Control System management platform. WCS enables the IT manager to successfully plan, deploy, monitor, troubleshoot, and report on the stadium network - all from a centralized location. As the comprehensive lifecycle management platform, the Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS): Includes the same configuration, performance monitoring, security, fault management, and accounting options used at the controller level and adds a graphical view of multiple controllers and managed access points. It runs on Windows 2003 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES/AS 5.X servers. WCS uses the industry-standard SNMP protocol to communicate with the controllers. In WCS, you can bring in a .jpg or .bmp map of an office floor, place the APs on the map, draw obstacles, and take data points. Once a drawing has been calibrated, that is, obstacles drawn, we get a heat map based upon the information that is fed into WCS. This can be quite handy for Real-time location of rogue access points and rogue ad hoc events to the nearest Cisco access point or show real-time and historical location of clients to the nearest Cisco access point. As a reporting tool, WCS can show statistics of client counts, throughput, controller and AP inventory, rogue AP stats, and much more. The IT manager may schedule reports to run at predetermined times. WCS is an important component of the Connected Stadium Wi-Fi solution and is critical when managing hundreds of APs in such harsh Wi-Fi environments found in sport and entertainment properties.

usually ID/PWD5. Choose roaming plan6. Start Internet

Automatic Setup1. Power-on or unlock the phone2. Handset automatically validates network and

initiates connection.
