Installation Requirements and Recommendations
For best results, follow these requirements and recommendations before installing a RoamAbout
Access Point.
RASM Network Plan and Work Orders
If you are using RASM to plan your Enterasys Networks Mobility System installation, you might
want to create and verify a network plan for the entire Enterasys network installation and generate
an AP work order, before installing APs. A network plan and the AP work orders generated from
it provide the following information about AP installation and configuration:
•
Number of APs required for adequate WLAN capacity in each coverage area
•
Detailed installation location for each AP
•
Settings for all APs in the WLAN
For information about installing RASM, creating and verifying a network plan, and generating an
AP work order, refer to the Enterasys RoamAbout Switch Manager User's Guide and the Enterasys
RoamAbout Switch Manager Interface Reference Guide.
