Parameter Description
Campus Name Select a campus for this building from the drop-down menu.
Building Name The Building Name is an alphanumeric string up to 64 characters in length.
Width and Length Enter the rectangular exterior dimensions of the building.
The valid range for this field is any integer from 1 to a value corresponding to 1x10,000.
If your building has an irregular shape, the width and length should represent the maximum width
and length of the overall footprint of the building as seen from above. For example:
When width and length are specified, RF Plan creates a rectangular area in the Planning feature
pages that represent the overall area covered by the building. You need to import an appropriate
background image (see "Floor Editor Dialog Box" on page 806.) to aid you in defining areas that
do not require coverage or areas in which you do not wish to deploy APs and AMs (see "Area
Editor Dialog Box" on page 807).
Inter-Floor Height This is the distance between floor surfaces in the building. The valid range for this field is any
integer from 1 to a value corresponding to 1x10,000. RF Plan uses the inter-floor height to allow
APs on one floor to service users on adjacent floors. If you do not want RF Plan to factor adjacent
floors, select a high inter-floor height value (for example, 300).
NOTE: This is
not
the distance from floor to ceiling. Some buildings have a large space between
the interior ceilings and the floor above.
Floors Enter the number of floors in your building here. The valid range for this field is any integer from 1
to 255. A building can have a maximum of 255 floors. You can also configure negative floor IDs.
Negative floor IDs let you allocate floors as sub floors, ground floors, basements or other
underground floors, or floors where you do not need to deploy APs.
You specify a negative integer when modifying an existing floor; you do not configure negative
floor settings when adding a building or adding a floor. For more information, see "Level" on
page 806.
Unit Specify the unit of measurement for the dimensions you specified on the page. The choices are
feet and meters.
Table 368:
New Building Specifications Parameters
AP Modeling Parameters Page
The AP Modeling Parameters page allows you to specify the information necessary for RF Plan to determine the
appropriate placement of your APs. These settings are on a per-building basis. If you have a mix of APs, choose the
most common one to define the building parameters.
