About Client Location

The Cisco WLAN Solution periodically determines client, rogue access point, rogue assess point client, radio frequency ID (RFID) tag location and stores the locations in the Cisco WCS database. To view the client location history, display the Cisco WCS Monitor Client <client> - <vendor:MACaddr> page and select Recent Map (High Resolution) or Present Map (High Resolution). Cisco WCS Base supports location to the nearest Cisco 1000 Series lightweight access point. Cisco WCS Location supports location to within 10 meters.

When Cisco WCS Location is used, Cisco WLAN Solution end users can also deploy Cisco 2700 Series Location Appliances (location appliances), described in the Cisco 2700 Series Location Appliances section. The location appliance enhances the high-accuracy built-in Cisco WCS Location abilities by computing, collecting and storing historical location data, which can be displayed in Cisco WCS. In this role, the location appliance acts as a server to one or more Cisco WCS Servers, collecting, storing, and passing on data from its associated Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers.
