  Introduction
Introduction
CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution (LMS) provides powerful features that enable you to configure, 
monitor, troubleshoot, and administer Cisco networks. It also supports new Cisco technologies such as 
Identity, EnergyWise, Auto Smartports, and Smart Install.
LMS 4.0.1 simplifies the deployment, and manages the day-to-day configuration of the Cisco 
Medianet 2.1 solution. LMS provides workflows for setting up auto configuration, and for configuring 
location settings to aid the provisioning and tracking of Medianet endpoints such as digital media players 
(DMP) and IP video surveillance cameras (IPVSC). 
What’s New in This Release
The following are the new features in LMS 4.0.1:
Medianet Dashboard
The Medianet dashboard provides a quick snapshot of the operational status of Medianet endpoints, and 
also the faults and configuration changes of Medianet devices that have Medianet endpoints connected 
to them. You can access the Medianet dashboard using My Menu > Default Dashboards > Medianet.
Using the Medianet dashboard, you can view the following portlets:
Medianet Endpoint Status Across Locations 
View a bar chart that displays the operational status of the Medianet endpoints grouped according 
to specific location attributes.
Faults on Devices with Medianet Endpoints
View the faults that have occurred on devices with Medianet endpoints connected to them.
Unreachable Medianet Endpoints
