Figure 643 Enabling wireless location

Verifying the configuration

You can display the location information of the rogue AP, APs, and clients by maps, forms or reports.

Configuration guidelines

Before you enable the wireless location function, make sure at least three APs operate in monitor or
hybrid mode so that the APs can detect Tags and clients not associated with them, and the AE can

implement location calculation.

An AP monitors clients on different channels periodically, so if the Tag message sending interval is
configured as 1 second, the AP scans and reports Tag messages every half a minute. If higher

location efficiency is required, you can set the Tag sending interval to the smallest value, 124

milliseconds.
