Deployment and Design Requirements
the buildings that comprise that campus, and the floors of each building constitute a single network
design. The location appliance is set to poll the controllers in that network, as well as be configured to
synchronize with that specific network design, in order to track devices in that environment. The concept
and steps to perform synchronization between WCS and the location appliance is explained in
“Importing the Location Appliance into WCS, page 20.”
Designing a Network
Follow these steps to design a network.
Step 1 Open WCS’s web interface and log in.
Note To create or edit a network design, you must log into WCS and have SuperUser, Admin, or
ConfigManager access privileges.
Step 2 Click the Monitor tab and choose the Maps subtab.
Step 3 From the drop-down menu on the right-hand side, choose either New Campus or New Building (see
Figure 10), depending on the size of the network design and the organization of maps (see Figure 9). To
create a building without a campus, skip to Step 13.
