Moving a Device from Monitor Only to Manage Read/Write Mode
Once the device configuration status is Good on the APs/Devices > List page, or once you have verified all changes
that will be applied to the device on the APs/Devices > Audit page, you can safely shift the device from Monitor
Only mode to Manage Read/Write mode.
NOTE: When a device is in Manage mode, AirWave will push a new configuration to the device in the event that the actual device
configuration does not match the AirWave configuration for that device.
To move a device from Monitor Only to Manage Read/Write mode, perform the following steps.
1. Go to the APs/Devices > List page and select the wrench icon next to the name of the AP to be shifted from
Monitor Only mode to Manage Read/Write mode. This directs you to the APs/Devices > Manage page.
2. Locate the General area as shown in Figure 97.
Figure 97: APs/Devices > Manage > General Section Illustration
3. Select Manage Read/Write on the Management Mode field.
4. Select Save and Apply, then Confirm Edit on the confirmation page to retain these settings and to push
configuration to the device.
5. For device configuration changes that require the device to reboot, use the Schedule function to push the
changes at a time when WLAN users will not be affected.
6. To move multiple devices into managed mode at once, use the Modify Devices link on an AP list page. For more
information, refer to "Modifying Multiple Devices" on page 95.
NOTE: Use the Enable Planned Maintenance Mode field in APs/Devices > Manage > General to put this device into planned
maintenance. During the maintenance mode, no AP Down triggers will be deployed on these devices. Users will not be able to delete
folders that contain devices in Planned Maintenance. The devices in Planned Maintenance will show the Up status, but will not be
tracked in historical graphs and logs as Up. You can set multiple devices into Planned Maintenance Mode in the Modify Devices link
on an AP list page.
