What are the three primary components of WCS?
A. WCS is made up of three primary components: the Solid database engine, the Apache web server engine, and the Java-based SNMP engine. WCS has its own version of Java built in so Java should never be installed on a machine that’s going to run WCS else a Java conflict will occur. All three components work together to provide the complete WCS functionality. The Apache web server is what is called as GUI of the WCS. It provides web interface to the user. SNMP engine on WCS is used to communicate with the WLC. It helps to push the configurations to the WLC and gather logs and traps from the WLC. It uses SNMP protocol for all communications with the WLC. To check if all the three major components of WCS are running and its states, click Start >Programs > WCS > Status.
