Dell 6.2 Server User Manual


 
l 802.11n Zone: 802.11n compliant APs are required to be positioned in the area specified in this dialog box only.
This setting results in display of a green rectangle at the associated area in the floor diagram.
You cannot right-click within an existing area to add another area inside of it. For instance, if a Don’t Care or Don’t
Deploy Area needs to overlap with an 802.11n Zone, you must create each of the areas outside of one another and
then move them to the correct position of overlap. You can click and drag the areas to the appropriate positions of
overlap, or you can right-click on the area to modify its location.
Access Point Editor Dialog Box
The Access Point Editor allows you to manually create or modify a suggested AP.
To create an AP, open the Access Point Editor dialog box by clicking New in the Suggested Access Points and Air
Monitors section.
To modify an existing AP, place the cursor over the AP and click it to display the Suggested Access Point Editor
dialog box.

Naming
RF Plan automatically names APs using the default convention ap number, where number starts at 1 and
increments by one for each new AP. When you manually create an AP, the new AP is assigned the next number and
is added to the bottom of the suggested AP list.
You may name an AP anything you wish. The name must consist of alphanumeric characters and be 64 characters or
less in length.
Fixed
Fixed APs do not move when RF Plan executes the positioning algorithm.
NOTE: You might typically set a fixed AP when you have a specific room, such as a conference room, in which you want saturated
coverage. You might also want to consider using a fixed AP when you have an area that has an unusually high user density.
Choose Yes or No from the drop-down menu. Choosing Yes locks the position of the AP as it is shown in the
coordinate boxes of the Access Editor. Choosing No allows RF Plan to move the AP as necessary to achieve best
performance.
