Verifying Configuration 
Changes
WLAN Management Software uses a set of rules to verify WSS configurations. Changes to a switch’s configuration in 
WLAN Management Software or in the live network are automatically evaluated by comparing the changes to the rules. 
If the evaluation detects any error or warning conditions, the information in the Alerts panel is updated:
Errors or warnings in a switch’s configuration in WLAN Management Software affect the Configuration counts. 
Errors or warnings in the network affect the Network counts.
Verification Panel
Click on Config in the Alerts panel to display the Verification panel. The Verification panel shows errors and warnings 
for switch configuration information in WLAN Management Software
The Verification tab contains a Config Verification tab and a Network Verification tab:
The Config Verification tab shows errors and warnings for switch configuration information in WLAN Management 
Software.
The Network Verification tab shows errors and warnings for configuration information in the network. The errors 
and warnings can be for switch configuration items and for the monitoring service.
The upper section of the panel lists error descriptions in red and lists warning descriptions in orange:
Errors are serious problems that must be addressed before deployment. By default, you cannot deploy a network 
plan with errors in it. After fixing errors, verify the network plan again to ensure that the errors have been resolved.
Warnings are noncritical issues that do not stop deployment. Review any warnings and consider resolving the issues 
before deployment. 
Details about the selected error or warning appear in the lower left section of the panel. 
The Resolution section lists options for resolving the warning or error.
