Import a Site Survey
You can import RF measurement data by means of a site survey done
outside of 3WXM. Using the Site Survey Order report from 3WXM, a map
is created of your site that can be used in an Ekahau site survey. After the
survey is complete, the measurement data can be imported back into
3WXM, and RF obstacles adjusted. In this way, actual, measured
information about RF obstacles can be obtained and incorporated into
your plan.
This guide contains post-deployment information about optimization on
“Displaying the RF Coverage Area” on page 189. For pre-deployment
information about optimization, see “Optimizing a Network Plan” in the
Wireless LAN Switch Manager Reference Manual.
