Overview
This guide is designed as a reference for installing the Dell PowerConnect W AirWave Wireless Management Suite
(AWMS) using the CentOS software bundled with the .iso disc image. If you are installing AWMS on a VMware server,
please consult Appendix H of the AWMS User Guide for important installation instructions. If you are installing
AWMS on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux server, contact Dell support at http://support.dell.com.
Pre-Installation Checklist
Use this checklist to ensure installation goes smoothly
Checklist
Check
Have available the AWMS license key text sent to you in an email from Dell.
Obtain dedicated server meeting Dell sizing specifications
Static IP address for each AWMS server
Firewall provisioning enabling proper ports/protocols
WLAN infrastructure properties (type, quantity, and location)
WLAN infrastructure access credentials (SNMP, telnet, SSH, etc)
WLAN security policy specifications
Router and switches to monitoring (optional)
Upstream NMS applications (optional)
Wireless client authentication servers (optional)
AWMS administrative authentication servers like TACACS+ or RADIUS (optional)
Creating an AWMS Installation CD from .iso Disc Image
There is a variety of software tools that can be used to create an installation CD from the Dell PowerConnect W
AirWave Management Platform Installation CD .iso disc image. Dell recommends using a free tool called burnatonce.
Note : The CD burning software included with Windows XP does not currently support the ability to create a CD from
an .iso disc image.
1. Download and save the Dell PowerConnect W AirWave Wireless Management Suite Installation CD .iso disc
image.
2. Download and install burnatonce from http://www.burnatonce.net/downloads/ (NOTE: Windows ME users will
need to download and install an additional ASPI layer.)
3. Insert a blank CD-R into the CD-R drive.
4. Right-click on the AWMS Installation CD .iso disc image file and select “burnatonce”.
When the burnatonce program opens, click the Write button. If burnatonce has not automatically associated to
the .iso disc image, run burnatonce manually and select the AWMS install image from the Load menu.
For help with CD burning software other than burnatonce, please refer to the user guide for that product and reference
the option to create a CD from .iso disc image. With Nero, for instance, this option may be found under File > Burn
Image or Recorder > Burn Image.
Server Requirements
AWMS runs on a dedicated system and is compatible with most standard PC or rack-mount server hardware. The
AWMS Installation CD will format the hard disk, install the CentOS operating system, and install the AWMS software.
Please refer to the Dell PowerConnect W Airwave Sizing Guide for minimum hardware requirements or contact Dell
support at http://support.dell.com. Installation on virtual machines may suffer from poor performance due to a current
incompatibility with the operating system kernel. The hardware must support Red Hat Enterprise 5.0.
Installing the AWMS
Warning : This will format system hard disk drive(s) and destroy existing data.
Phase 1: Installation of Cent OS
Insert the Dell PowerConnect W AirWave Wireless Management Suite Installation CD into the CD-ROM drive and
boot the server from this CD. When prompted at the Dell PowerConnect W AirWave splash screen, type “install” to
begin installation of the Cent OS operating system. This process will later prompt for the selection of appropriate
keyboard layout and time zone for your location. When the Cent OS installation is complete, the system will reboot and
the installation CD will be ejected. Remove the CD from the CD-ROM drive.
Phase 2: Installation and configuration of AWMS software
The system will proceed through the Cent OS Linux boot process and a login prompt will be displayed. Use the
following credentials to log in to the system which will display the message included below.
username: root
password: admin
#################################################################
Welcome to the Dell PowerConnect W AirWave AMP.
Please run "./amp-install" to complete the installation.
#################################################################
To continue with the installation of Dell PowerConnect W AirWave Management Platform software, enter
this command at the prompt:
./amp-install
The installation of AWMS software will proceed through seven steps. Steps 2-4 require no user input.
Step 1: configuring date and time
Step 5: enter static IP configuration for the primary network interface
Step 6: enter a display name for the Dell PowerConnect W AirWave Management Platform system
Step 7: if a DNS entry exists for the IP address assigned to the AWMS server, enter „y‟ then the DNS hostname;
otherwise enter „n‟
Step 8: enter a new root user password. This password should be secure and recorded in a safe place.
Accessing the Dell PowerConnect W AirWave Wireless Management Suite
Web Interface
Enter the IP address assigned to the AWMS server into the URL box of your web browser. Use these default credentials
to log in to the system:
username: admin
password: admin
The first page to appear after you log in is the Home>License page. Paste the AWMS license key you received from
Dell into the license field on this page, then click Save to display the Dell AWMS licensing agreement. Click I Accept to
accept the terms of the license agreement and apply the license key.
Changing Login Credentials
Dell strongly recommends that you change the system default credentials.
The password for the default web interface user may be changed using the web interface itself, from the AMP
Setup>Users page. Click on the small pencil icon to edit the admin user.
The password for the root user may be changed by entering the command passwd on the server command line
prompt.
