Chapter 1 Planning Your WAAS Network
WAAS Devices and Device Mode
For example, after you use the WAAS CLI to specify the basic network parameters for the designated
WAAS Central Manager (the WAAS device named waas-cm) and assign it a primary interface, you can
use the device mode configuration command to specify its device mode as central-manager.
waas-cm# configure
waas-cm(config)# primary-interface gigabitEthernet 1/0
waas-cm(config)# device mode central-manager
waas-cm(config)# exit
waas-cm# copy run start
waas-cm# reload
Proceed with reload?[confirm]yes
Shutting down all services, will timeout in 15 minutes.
reload in progress ..
For more information about how to initially configure a WAAS device, see the Cisco Wide Area
Application Services Quick Configuration Guide.
Note You cannot configure a WAE network module in the NME-WAE or SM-SRE family of devices to operate
in WAAS Central Manager mode.
You can configure a WAE with a Cisco WAE Inline Network Adapter to operate in WAAS Central
Manager mode, but the inline interception functionality is not available.
Changing Device Mode
If you want to change the device mode of a device that is already registered with a Central Manager, you
must first deregister the device from the Central Manager, change the device mode, reload the device,
and then reenable CMS services.
The following steps show how to change the device mode from application-accelerator to
appnav-controller:
Step 1 Deregister the device from the Central Manager.
wae# cms deregister
Deregistering WAE device from Central Manager will result in loss of data on encrypted
file systems, imported certificate/private keys for SSL service and cifs/wafs preposition
credentials. If secure store is initialized and open, clear secure store and wait for one
datafeed poll rate to retain cifs/wafs preposition credentails.
Do you really want to continue (yes|no) [no]?yes
Disabling management service.
management services stopped
Sending de-registration request to CM
SSMGR RETURNING: 7 (Success)
Removing cms database tables.
Re-initializing SSL managed store and restarting SSL accelerator.Deregistration complete.
Save current cli configuration using 'copy running-config startup-config' command because
CMS service has been disabled.
Step 2 Change the device mode to appnav-controller.
wae# configure
wae(config)# device mode appnav-controller
The new configuration will take effect after reload.
Step 3 Save the configuration and reload.
