Defining a Coverage
7 To add a WX switch you previously created to the wiring closet, click the
WX switch in the Available Devices box, then click the Add button to
move it to the Current Devices box.
To remove a WX switch from the wiring closet, click the WX switch in the
Current Devices box, then click the Remove button to move it to the
Available Devices box.
If there are two or more WX switches in the wiring closet, you can
change the order in which 3WXM checks switches for free ports. If there
are no free ports on the switches listed, 3WXM creates and inserts a new
switch in the wiring closet. Select a WX switch and click the Up or Down
buttons to change the order of the switches.
8 Click Finish to save the changes.
Using the coverage area drawing tool, you can specify the coverage area
graphically on your floor plan.
You perform the following tasks to define a coverage area:
Shared Coverage Areas
3WXM supports the sharing of coverage areas if one area is completely
within a larger area. For example, you might want to provide 802.11a and
802.11b coverage in a conference room that is part of a larger coverage area
only providing 802.11a coverage. (Coverage areas that partially overlap are
not supported.) MAP access points are shared only in the overlapped area.
