Viewing Mobility Reports

The Mobility Domain is a virtual combination of Wireless LAN Controllers (WLCs) grouped for the purpose of roaming. The controller group consists of a Mobility Manager, Mobility agents, and a Backup Mobility Manager. The Mobility Domain preserves information about user sessions, allowing users to roam through the use of identity-based networking. A Mobility Domain can also provide network flexibility and scalability.

When a controller has been configured as a mobility manager, additional displays appear as options in the left pane:

  • Primary Manager Mobility Tunnel Matrix — Displays a cross-connection view of the state of inter-controller tunnels, as well as relative loading for user distribution across the mobility domain.
  • Client Location in Mobility Zone — Displays the active wireless clients and their status.
  • Backup Manager Mobility Tunnel Matrix — Displays a cross-connection view of the state of inter-controller tunnels, as well as relative loading for user distribution across the mobility domain.
  • Remotable VNS — Displays the active wireless clients and their status.
    Note

    Note

    There are four possible reports available from the Available Mobility Reports page depending on the configuration of the controller. If the controller does not have mobility enabled, it will just include the Remotable VNS report.

To view Mobility Manager reports:

  1. From the top menu, click Reports.
  2. In the left pane, click Mobility.
  3. Click the appropriate mobility manager report:
    • Client Location in Mobility Zone
    • Backup Manager Mobility Tunnel Matrix
    • Remotable VNS
    • Primary Manager Mobility Tunnel Matrix

The colored status indicates the following:

  • Green — The mobility manager is in communication with an agent and the data tunnel has been successfully established.
  • Yellow — The mobility manager is in communication with an agent but the data tunnel is not yet successfully established.
  • Red — The mobility manager is not in communication with an agent and there is no data tunnel.
