10) Zero-Touch Provisioning and Ongoing Management
Use Mobilize to specify the initial settings for your Array(s) before you receive your shipment.
Once the Array has booted and has Internet connectivity, it will automatically contact Xirrus
Mobilize for cloud-based zero-touch provisioning. Mobilize will install the Array’s license,
upgrade the Array to the latest software version if needed, and push your initial configuration
onto the Array.
NOTE: The Array must already be running ArrayOS release 6.5 or above to support
Mobilize access. The Array also requires access to DHCP and DNS servers on your network
in order to communicate with Xirrus Mobilize. Otherwise, see the Wireless Array User’s
Guide to configure your Array manually.
Ongoing management of the Array is normally performed using the Xirrus Management
System (XMS). There are different forms of XMS, and Array management differs depending on
the type of XMS:
XMS Cloud (xms-9500-CL-x), our latest, next-generation release of XMS. Arrays may be
provisioned (configured) in advance of deploying them. Arrays show up in your XMS
account a few hours after you place your order—even before you get them. If you need to
configure Array settings not available in your XMS interface, then refer to the Array User
Guide to log into the Array Web Management Interface directly to make configuration
changes.
XMS Cloud (xms-9000-CL-x). Your Arrays are managed by XMS. In fact, you will not be
able to access CLI or the Web Management Interface under normal operating circumstances.
Wait five minutes after powering up the Array for XMS to automatically discover it, then
use XMS to view/manage this unit.
XMS Enterprise, owned and run at your own facilities. Wait five minutes after powering up
the Array for XMS to automatically discover it, then use XMS to view and manage it. Newly
discovered Arrays are automatically assigned to XMS’s “default” profile managed network,
and they are managed solely by XMS. In fact, you will not be able to access CLI or the Web
Management Interface on profile-managed Arrays under normal operating circumstances.
If you are not using XMS, see the Array User Guide to configure your Array manually.
