Figure 23 Configuration Link W-AirWave Setup W-AirWave is a solution for managing rapidly changing wireless networks. When enabled, W-AirWave allows you to manage the Instant network. For more information on W-AirWave, see Managing a W-IAP from W-AirWave on page 307. The W-AirWave status is displayed below the Virtual Controller section of the Instant main window. If the W-AirWave status is Not Set Up, click the Set Up Now link to configure W-AirWave. The System > Admin window is displayed. Pause/Resume The Pause/Resume link is located on the Instant main window. The Instant UI is automatically refreshed every 15 seconds by default.

Click the Resume link to resume automatic refreshing. Automatic refreshing allows you to get the latest information about the network and network elements.
