Configuring the Location Appliance
Figure19 Synchronizing Controllers
Step17 If the network diagram is properly synchronized, two green arrows appear under the Sync. Status column
for each diagram. After synchronizing with the network diagram, all floor maps and access point
placements associated with that diagram are copied over to the location appliance; therefore, when the
location appliance is set to synchronize with the diagram’s controllers, it can decipher where the devices
are located.
Step18 To set up controller synchronization, choose Controllers from the Synchronize drop-down menu.
Step19 Each controller managed by WCS appears in a drop-down menu. Assign each controller to a specific
location appliance by choosing the name of the location appliance with which the controllers will
synchronize and click Synchronize.
Step20 After the location appliance is properly synchronized with controllers, green arrows appear next to each
controller under the Sync. Status column.
Note You must properly synchronize network diagrams and controllers to have accurate device location.
When changes are made to network diagrams, the location appliance must be resynchronized. For correct
operation of th e location appliance, ensure that the necessary network diagrams and controllers are
always properly synchronized.
Enabling and Configuring Device TrackingBy default, all device location tracking is turned off. You must enable device tracking for each trackable
parameter (clients, rogue access points and clients, asset tags, and device statistics).
Step1 Navigate to Locate > Location Servers and click on the hyperlink associated with the location appliance
