z Xirrus Management System (XMS)
XMS is used for managing large Array deployments from a centralized
Web-based interface. The XMS server is available pre-installed on the
Xirrus XM-33xx-CC Management Platform Series, or as a software
package (XA-3300-CC) to be installed on your own server hardware.
Figure 2 illustrates the elements of the Xirrus Management System. Users
start the XMS client simply by entering the URL of the XMS server on a
web browser. The XMS server manages a number of Wi-Fi Arrays via
SNMP.

to multiple Arrays, facilitating backup power when connected via a UPS.
