After adding a Cisco 2700 Series Location Appliance (location appliance) to the Cisco WCS database,
you can independently modify whether or not the location appliance retains its heatmap persistence,
whether or not the location appliance retains its calculation times, and how soon the location appliance
deletes its collected RSSI measurement times. Note that Cisco WCS users can display the location
appliance historical data at any time.
1. In the Cisco WCS interface, select LOCATE to display the All Location Appliances page.
2. Click the desired Server Name to have Cisco WCS display the Location Appliance > General
Properties > <LocAppliance Name> page.
3. In the left navigation bar, click Location Parameters to have Cisco WCS display the Location
Appliance > Location Parameters > <LocAppliance Name> page.
4. Set the following:
- Enable heatmap persistence: Select the check box to have the location appliance
retain its heatmap persistence (default = heatmap persistence disabled).
- Enable calculation time: Select the check box to have the location appliance retain
its calculation times (default = calculation times disabled).
- Discard RSSI measurement time: Enter the number of minutes (between 0 and
99999 minutes) for the location appliance to retain its collected RSSI values (default =
480 minutes). After this time, the location appliance purges its older RSSI values.
