What is the role of the Wireless LAN Solution Engine (WLSE) in a WDS-enabled wireless LAN (WLAN) network?
A. APs and, optionally, Cisco client devices or Cisco-compatible client devices take radio frequency (RF) measurements within a single subnetwork. Cisco SWAN WDS aggregates the measurements and forwards the measurements to CiscoWorks WLSE for analysis. With these measurements as a basis, CiscoWorks WLSE can: • Detect rogue APs and interference from other devices. Note: The maximum number of rogues that can be shown in WLSE is 5000. If the WLSE has reached this rogue limit, the Limit of Infrastructure/Ad-hoc rogues tracking error message appears. In such cases, to delete these rogues from WLSE, navigate to IDS > Manage Rogues, choose the “Select *ALL*” *& ‘Delete’ option in order to delete the rogues. If the unknown (rogue) radio count is over 5000 in your environment, you again hit this number and the same warning message appears. The only way to overcome this is to either manage those radios or mark those radios as friendly.
