Can I manage my SSIDs using Airwave?

    Hi everyone,

     

    I'm new to the aruba universe and I just deployed airwave in my workplace (about 20 APs). I know I can delete and create SSIDs by accessing the virtual controller, I was wondering if I could do it directly in Airwave. Is it possible?

    Hi there, I have read the manual, a different one but still very similiar since I'm using the W-Airwave. The thig is, according to the manual I can do what I want, which is create and manage SSIDs using Airwave and not the virtual controller, but there's no option on my Airwave to create a new WLAN, according to the manual it should have. If I try to add a new group it just creates a new group like the one I have with the deployed APs, but no WLAN information at all.

    Am I missing something dumb or should it really look like the image above?

    If I edit the template of my virtual controller file in Airwave and rename an SSID for example, it works... but is there any way to do this (create/delete SSIDs) using Airwave graphical interface?

    Did you enable "Instant GUI Config" in the Group?

    It's disabled right now. I tried to enable it earlier today, but I ended up needing to restore the virtual controller backup because I had lost all my instant configs (the master ap wasn't even broadcasting the instant ssid), I'm not sure if it's related though, I tweaked with a bunch of settings. I will try it again next week.
