HP Manager Software manual To create a wiring closet

136CHAPTER 4: PLANNING THE 3COM MOBILITY SYSTEM

Each floor plan must have at least one wiring closet, if the floor will use MAPs that are directly connected to their WX switches. However, a floor is not required to have a wiring closet if MAPs will be indirectly attached through the network. In this case, if you do not create a wiring closet, 3WXM assumes the WX switch that will manage the Distributed MAPs will be located in a wiring closet on another floor in the building.

To create a wiring closet

1On the Plan RF Coverage page of the Building wizard, click the Wiring Closet icon.

2On the floor layout, click the location of the wiring closet. The Create Wiring Closet dialog box appears.

3In the Name box, type the name of the wiring closet (1 to 60 characters, with no tabs).

4If you have not defined a WX switch in 3WXM, click Finish to save the changes. Otherwise, go to step 5.
