Why each option
Cisco Prime Infrastructure is the centralized network management system that aggregates, displays, and archives CleanAir alarms from WLCs across the entire wireless infrastructure.
A wIPS AP (or monitor mode AP) detects wireless threats and forwards data to the MSE or WLC, but it is a sensor device and not a central collection or archival system.
Cisco Prime Infrastructure integrates with WLCs and MSE to collect CleanAir events and alarms from all APs across multiple sites, storing them in a centralized database for archival and historical reporting. It provides dashboards, alarm history, and reporting features specifically designed for long-term retention of CleanAir interference data. This makes it the appropriate device to configure as the central collection point for CleanAir alarms.
The MSE (Mobility Services Engine) processes and correlates CleanAir data for location and analytics purposes, but Cisco Prime Infrastructure is the designated platform for centralized alarm archival and management.
The WLC receives CleanAir reports from associated APs and can display current alarms locally, but it is not designed for centralized multi-WLC archival of alarm history.
