Cisco Systems OL-7426-03 Manual De Usuario

The Cisco WCS administrator creates new usernames passwords and assigns them to predefined 
permissions groups. This task is described in 

.

Cisco WCS User Interface operators perform their tasks as described in

Floor Plan Editor

Cisco WCS includes the Floor Plan Editor, which converts architectural, mechanical and technical 
drawings, graphics, maps and other types of line artwork from raster bitmaps to wall (vector) formats. 
Operators can use scanners to digitize paper drawings into supported file formats for import into Cisco 
WCS. The Floor Plan Editor automatically recognizes and represents the data in a wall format which can 
then be imported into your Cisco WCS (

) program. 

Because of its ability to create smooth straight, angled, and semi-angled outlines, the Floor Plan Editor 
is used to convert floor plan maps, define the wall characteristics, and import the resulting vector wall 
format maps into the Cisco WCS database. The vector files allow the Cisco WCS RF Prediction Tool to 
make much better RF predictions based on Cisco 1000 Series lightweight access point signal strength, 
and accurate wall, window and cubicle RF attenuation.
Otherwise, you may want to save raster images in .BMP, .TIFF, .JPEG, or .PNG raster formats. Note 
that you can also edit existing vector map files.
The output wall files can be saved in vector (Cisco WLAN Solution wall format) for importing directly 
into the Cisco WCS database. The output wall files can also be saved in the following formats, but Cisco 
WCS does not recognize these file types: .DXF (AutoCAD), .AI (Adobe Illustrator), .EMF (enhanced 
metafile), .WMF (Windows metafile), and .TXT (ASCII XY).
Note that there are no restrictions on the input or output image size.

Cisco WCS Cisco Wireless LAN Controller Autodiscovery

Manually adding Cisco Wireless LAN Controller data to a management database can be time consuming, 
and is susceptible to data entry errors. The 

 (Cisco WCS) includes a 

built-in Cisco Wireless LAN Controller configuration upload function that speeds up database creation 
while eliminating errors.
Cisco Wireless LAN Controller Autodiscovery is limited to the 

subnets defined by the Cisco WLAN Solution operator.
Cisco Wireless LAN Controller Autodiscovery allows operators to search for a single Cisco Wireless LAN 
Controller by IP Address. The Autodiscovery function finds the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller on the 
network with the specified IP Address, and automatically enters the discovered Cisco Wireless LAN 
Controller information into the Cisco WCS database. 
As 

 associate with a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller, the 

Cisco Wireless LAN Controller immediately transmits the Cisco 1000 Series lightweight access point 
information to Cisco WCS, which automatically adds the Cisco 1000 Series lightweight access point to 
the Cisco WCS database. 

 The quality of Floor Plan Editor recognition is higher for higher resolution data. 

Use 400 to 600 dots per inch (dpi) scans whenever possible. 

 Cisco WLAN Solution strongly recommends that you create images with the 

long axis horizontal (landscape format) to ensure the best viewing in Cisco WCS.
