MSE（Mobility Services Engine）

Cisco MSE可以配合无线实现很多功能，MSE的功能简单概括有：

1、基本位置服务捕获并聚合关键网络信息，例如设备位置，RF频谱详细信息和RF干扰源。它还允许支持丰富的实时位置服务（RTLS，Real-Time Location Services）

2、使用基于位置的服务自定义移动体验，例如可以通过现场，在线和社交分析提供个性化的移动体验并更好地了解用户。

3、确保无线用户和网络安全，思科MSE自适应无线入侵防御系统（wIPS）有助于保护网络免受恶意无线设备，拒绝服务（DoS）攻击和其他无线威胁的侵害。它提供了加强安全性和提高合规性所需的工具。

各功能的license

1、Base Location license

2、Connected Mobile Experiences (CMX) license

3、wIPS license

使用的平台

物理应用：Cisco MSE3355 & MSE 3356

虚拟应用：VMware ESX/ESXi (Version 4.1/5.0/5.1/5.5 or later)、Xen Server version 6.1 or higher、Hyper-V version 2008/2012 or higher (Note: Hyper-V version 2012R2, RS3 and future not supported.)

初始化MSE

这里简单截取了MSE在VMware VSphere中初始化的信息，在思科官网下载对应的MSE ova文件，直接在VMware打开虚拟机，这个过程会比较久。

下面的信息是MSE初始化需要配置的信息：

1、打开VSphere客户端。

2、登录到VSphere客户端或者VCenter Server

3、使用VSphere客户端打开OVF/OVA文件

3.1、选择Home>Inventory>Hosts and Clusters

3.2、选择将要部署的问题

3.3、从VSPhere工具栏选择File>Deploy OVF Template

4、选择一个Source location

4.1、点击Browse

4.2、从“打开”对话框中，找到下载到计算机的相应.ova文件，然后单击“打开”。

5、点击Next

6、查看OVF模板详细信息，然后单击Next 。 有关Cisco MSE虚拟设备的一些详细信息包括：

Version number ——版本号
    Download size 
    Size on disk ——磁盘大小

7、点击Next，名字和位置窗口出现。

8、在Name那一框中输入对应的虚拟机的名字 。

9、Next，磁盘格式出现窗口出现。

10、选择磁盘格式。

如果磁盘空间足够，可以选择如下的方式：

- Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed-创建虚拟磁盘时分配虚拟磁盘所需的空间。 创建虚拟磁盘时，物理设备上保留的数据不会被删除，但在第一次从虚拟磁盘写入时会根据需要将其清零。

- Thick Provision Eager Zeroed-创建虚拟磁盘时分配虚拟磁盘所需的空间。 与Lazy Zeroed选项不同，创建虚拟磁盘时会删除物理设备上保留的数据。

如果磁盘空间资源相对欠缺，可以选择Thin Provision（精简配置）：

精简配置 - 虚拟磁盘所需的空间在创建期间不会分配，而是在以后按需提供，归零。

11、点击Next，Network Mapping窗口出现。

12、对于OVF模板中指定的Network，右键单击基础结构中的“Destination Network”列以选择网络以设置Network Mapping，然后单击“Next”。

13、到达Complete界面，检查之前的设置。

14、点击Back可以返回修改，点击Finish就完成部署，开始下一步操作。

15、进度条与Cisco MSE虚拟设备部署保持同步，根据网络延迟，可能需要5到10分钟才能完成。 部署完成后，将打开“Deployment Completed Successfully”对话框。

成功，点击Close

下一步操作，将是对MSE的一些基本设置：

Power on MSE VM，然后接入console控制台。按Enter键以显示登录提示以启动MSE安装向导。 并将显示以下内容（如下安装进程大概需要花费40-50 min）：

强烈建议在初始设置期间配置所有相关项目，以确保MSE的最佳运行。 必须始终在自动安装期间配置主机名以及Ethernet-0（eth0）或Ethernet-1（eth1）端口。

如果我们需要修改之前设置的参数，可通过如下命令随时重新运行自动安装脚本以添加或更改参数：

[root @ mse] #/opt/mse/setup/setup.sh

无需重新输入您在其中一个更新期间不想更改的值。修改你想要修改的参数即可。

如果你不想配置的，输入skip，系统将提示您进行下一个配置步骤。 跳过的任何设置都会保留，不会被修改。

使用Console控制器安装的部署，只是完成了MSE的最小配置，除此之外的所有配置，都由PI来完成。

其他操作：

如果需要将MSE配置为启动后自动launch，使用如下命令：

[root@mse8-0]# chkconfig msed on

重启MSE，可以输入reboot：

[root@mse8-0]# reboot

手动开启MSE service，输入如下命令：

[root@mse8-0]# service msed start

可以随时重新运行安装脚本，以root身份登录并运行/opt/mse/setup/setup.sh来更改设置。

[root@mse8-0]#/opt/mse/setup/setup.sh

安装脚本生成一个日志文件，可以在/opt/mse/setup/setup.log中找到。
