Additional Concepts and Components of Dell PowerConnect W Configuration Dell PowerConnect W Configuration emphasizes the following components and network management concepts. Global Configuration and Scope Dell PowerConnect W Configuration supports ArubaOS as follows:  AWMS supports global configuration from both a master-local controller deployment and an all-master controller deployment:  In a master-local controller deployment, ArubaOS is the agent that pushes global configurations from master controllers to local controllers. AWMS supports this AOS functionality.  In an all-master-controller scenario, every master controller operates independent of other master controllers. AWMS provides the ability to push configuration to all master controllers in this scenario.  AWMS Dell PowerConnect W Configuration supports ArubaOS profiles, Dell PowerConnect W AP Profiles, Servers, and User Roles. For additional information about these and additional functions, refer to "General Controller Procedures and Guidelines" on page 29. Referenced Profile Setup in Dell PowerConnect W Configuration AWMS allows you to add or reconfigure many configuration profiles while guiding you through a larger configuration sequence for an Dell PowerConnect W AP Group or WLAN. Consider the following example:  When you create a new Dell PowerConnect W AP Group from the Device Setup > Dell PowerConnect W Configuration page, the Referenced Profile section appears as shown in Figure 14: Figure 14 Referenced Profile Configuration for an Dell PowerConnect W AP Group  Click the Add icon (the plus symbol) at right to add a referenced profile. Once you Save or Save and Apply that profile, AWMS automatically returns you to the original Dell PowerConnect W AP Group configuration page.  This embedded configuration is also supported on the Additional Dell PowerConnect W Profiles section of the Groups > Dell PowerConnect W Config page.

Additional Concepts and Components of Dell PowerConnect W
Configuration
Dell PowerConnect W Configuration emphasizes the following components and network management concepts.
Global Configuration and Scope
Dell PowerConnect W Configuration supports ArubaOS as follows:
AWMS supports global configuration from both a master-local controller deployment and an all-master
controller deployment:
In a master-local controller deployment, ArubaOS is the agent that pushes global configurations from
master controllers to local controllers. AWMS supports this AOS functionality.
In an all-master-controller scenario, every master controller operates independent of other master
controllers. AWMS provides the ability to push configuration to all master controllers in this scenario.
AWMS Dell PowerConnect W Configuration supports ArubaOS profiles, Dell PowerConnect W AP Profiles,
Servers, and User Roles.
For additional information about these and additional functions, refer to
“General Controller Procedures and
Guidelines” on page 29
.
Referenced Profile Setup in Dell PowerConnect W Configuration
AWMS allows you to add or reconfigure many configuration profiles while guiding you through a larger
configuration sequence for an Dell PowerConnect W AP Group or WLAN. Consider the following example:
When you create a new Dell PowerConnect W AP Group from the
Device Setup > Dell PowerConnect W
Configuration
page, the
Referenced Profile
section appears as shown in
Figure 14
:
Figure 14

Click the
Add
icon (the plus symbol) at right to add a referenced profile. Once you
Save
or
Save and Apply
that profile, AWMS automatically returns you to the original Dell PowerConnect W AP Group configuration
page.
This embedded configuration is also supported on the
Additional Dell PowerConnect W Profiles
section of
the
Groups > Dell PowerConnect W Config
page.
