OmniAccess AP60/61: Installation Guide
Specific Locations
By setting specific location IDs for each AP , you can later apply configu-
ration changes or collect statistics and information for specific groups
of APs (for example, all APs on a particular floor in a particular building).
To set a specific location for an individual AP , the following command is
used:
setenv location <building number>.<floor number>.<device number>
where the following fields are required:
Building Number
Floor Number
Device Number
If you performed the recommended site survey using the Alcatel RF Plan
tool, the location data for all access points and air monitors can be
found on the tool's deployment page (see the Alcatel RF Plan User's
Guide).
If you prefer to enter the location data manually, record the location ID
you set for each access point and air monitor along with the following:
