Wireless location configuration example

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 545

, AP 1, AP 2, and AP 3 operate in normal mode. They send the collected tag and

MU messages to an AE (the location server), which performs location calculation and then sends the

data to the graphics software. You can obtain the location information of the rogue AP, APs, and clients
by using maps, forms or reports.

Configuration guidelines

Before you enable the wireless location function, make sure at least three APs operate in normal mode,

bind the APs to a wireless service, and enable the wireless service so that the APs can detect Tags and
clients not associated with them, and that the AE can implement location calculation.

Configuring the AE

1.

Configure the IP addresses of AP 1, AP 2, and AP 3 on the AE, or select the broadcasting mode

for the AE to discover APs.

2.

Perform configuration related to wireless location on the AE.

Configuring AP 1

AP 1, AP 2, and AP 3 are configured similarly, and the following only describes how to configure AP 1
for illustration.
To bind the wireless service to AP 1:

1.

Select AP > AP Setup from the navigation tree.

2.

Click Add.

3.

On the page that appears, enter the AP name ap1, select the model WA3628i-AGN, select
