WMS Administration
Extreme Networks Wireless Management Suite Reference Guide124
WMS has the ability to associate a user to a particular site. In such cases, it’s possible a user has access
to a site with associated APs but no controller. In such cases, the user can only view the access points.
They do not have access to the controller and consequently cannot perform configuration or firmware
operations.
1 Select User Management from the Administration menu.
When the screen loads, it displays a complete list of existing user accounts for WMS.
2 Refer to the following information to discern if a new user is needed, a user’s role permissions
require modification or if a user needs new sites associated.
3 Once reviewed, consider any of the following User Management actions as required for your
particular WMS deployment:
● Adding a New User on page 124
● Editing the Attributes of an Existing User on page 125
● Deleting an Existing User on page 126
