Configuring SODA Functionality

Copying the SODA

Agent to the WX

Switch

After creating the SODA agent with SODA manager, you copy the .zip file
to the WX switch using TFTP.

For example, the following command copies the soda.ZIP file from a TFTP
server to the WX switch:

WX1200# copy tftp://172.21.12.247/soda.ZIP soda.ZIP
....................................success: received
2912917 bytes in
11.230 seconds [ 259387 bytes/sec]

success: copy complete.

Installing the SODA

Agent Files on the

WX Switch

After copying the .zip file containing the SODA agent files to the WX
switch, you install the SODA agent files into a directory using the
following command:

install soda agent agent-file agent-directory directory

This command creates the specified directory, unzips the specified
agent-file and places the contents of the file into the directory. If the
directory has the same name as an SSID, then that SSID uses the SODA
agent files in the directory if SODA functionality is enabled for the service
profile that manages the SSID.

For example, the following command installs the contents of the file
soda.ZIP into a directory called sp1.

WX1200# install soda agent soda.ZIP agent-directory sp1
This command may take up to 20 seconds...
WX1200#

If SODA functionality is enabled for the service profile that manages
SSID sp1, then SODA agent files in this directory are downloaded to
clients attempting to connect to SSID sp1.
