NOTE
When you move a device to a different site, the expectation is that this device is being physically deployed in a
different radio coverage area supported by an existing site and populated by WMS managed infrastructure.
5 If necessary, use the Select All button to select and move all of the devices listed. Selecting the
Deselect All option deletes their selection.
6 Click the Move button.
The device is moved from its existing site to the designated site. This change is reflected in the
Associated Site column of each tab within the Device Management facility.
Planning Devices
WMS provides a means to define detected devices as planned or unplanned. A device defined as
planned means the physical deployment of this device was an anticipated when the site was created/
modified or after radio characteristics were assessed and the device was interpreted as required.
On the other hand, defining a device as unplanned means the device was not considered for the site but
was detected by WMS as operating within the site. This doesn’t necessarily imply the device is a rogue
and must be removed. However, the deployment of this device should be investigated. Unplanned
devices (as defined as No within WMS) can be changed to a planned state if you determine the device
is operating legitimately.
NOTE
If you define a device as “planned,” the My Networks Summary, Reports, Fault Management, Configuration and
Firmware features will not be available. These functions can only be invoked for “Managed” devices.
To define a device as planned (or unplanned):
1 Select Device Management from the Administration menu.
2 Select the Plan Devices tab.
The Plan Devices tab displays with device information and the associated site where the device
resides. None of the devices are selected (by default) when the screen initially displays.
