Note
After adding a new mobility services engine, you can synchronize network designs (campus, building, and outdoor maps) and event groups on the local mobility services engine with Cisco WCS. You can also choose to synchronize the mobility services engine with a specific controller. You can do this synchronization immediately after adding a new mobility services engine or at a later time. To synchronize the local and Cisco WCS databases, continue to the "Synchronizing Cisco WCS and a Mobility Services Engine" section on page 3-2.
