Wireless Array
Configuring the Wireless Array 367
The Array settings entered on this page are mostly taken from AirWatch. Once
you have entered these settings, your users will be constrained to follow a set of
steps to access the wireless network, as described in “User Procedure for Wireless
Access” on page 368.
Procedure for Managing AirWatch
If you have configured the Mobile Device Management setting on one or more
SSIDs to use AirWatch, then the API specified below will be used to determine
the admissibility of a mobile device requesting a connection to the wireless
network.
1. API URL: Obtain this from your AirWatch server’s System / Advanced /
Site URLs page. Copy the REST API URL string into this field. This
specifies the AirWatch API that the Array will call to determine the
enrollment and compliance status of a mobile device attempting to
connect to the Array. The steps that the user will need to take are
described in “User Procedure for Wireless Access” on page 368.
2. API Key: Obtain this from your AirWatch server. Go to the System /
Advanced / API / REST page, General tab, and copy the API Key string
into this field. The key is required for access to the API.
3. API Username: Enter the user name for your account on the AirWatch
server.
4. API Password: Enter the password for your account on the AirWatch
server.
5. API Timeout: (seconds) If AirWatch does not respond within this many
seconds, the request fails.
6. API Polling Period: (seconds) Mobile device enrollment and compliance
status will be checked via polling at this interval. Note that there may
thus be a delay before the mobile device will be admitted.
7. API Access Error: Specify whether or not to allow access if AirWatch fails
to respond. The default is to Block access.
