PLANNING THE 3COM MOBILITY
SYSTEM
The 3Com Wireless LAN Switch Manager (3WXM) planning tools help
you plan your mobility system. This chapter discusses the Building wizard
and describes how to create a site, create or modify buildings, import or
draw floor details, specify the RF characteristics of a floor, define a
wireless coverage area, compute MAP placement, and generate RF
network design information.
RF Planning
Overview
The 3WXM planning tools calculate the 3Com equipment you need, how
to configure it, and where to install it, all based on the information you
provide about your wireless coverage needs.
You can display projected coverage, and even experiment with network
changes. You can also optimize the plan based on RF measurements from
the live network.
In addition, when you add the geographical information about your
network to 3WXM, you can use 3WXM to visually find network clients or
rogue devices.
