3Com 3CRWXR10095A Switch User Manual


 
30 CHAPTER 2: WORKING WITH THE 3WXM USER INTERFACE
The network plan is the workspace in 3WXM you use to design and
manage a 3Com network. The network plan defines the following:
Network equipment (WX switches, MAPs, and third-party access
points)
Network site, including floor plans, RF characteristics of the floors, and
radio coverage
You can use the planning tool to define the network site and add the
equipment based on coverage and capacity needs. Alternatively, you can
add new or existing switches and access points individually.
Planning and equipment configuration, and network management, are
described in detail in other chapters of this manual. This chapter describes
the 3WXM user interface.
