The process may take several minutes. You may watch the progress on the status bar of your browser. The algorithm
stops when the movement is less than a threshold value calculated based on the number of APs. The threshold value
may be seen in the status bar at the bottom of the browser window.
Viewing the Results
The results of optimizing algorithm may be viewed two ways: graphically and in a table of suggested APs. You may
obtain information about a specific AP by placing the cursor over its symbol. An information box appears that
contains information regarding location, radio type, high-throughput support, channel(s), and power.
Figure 387: Results
The Suggested Access Points and Air Monitors table lists the coordinates, power, location, power setting, high-
throughput support, and channel(s) for each of the APs that are shown in the floor plan.

Fix All Suggested AP/AMs
Fix existing AP/AM locations at the building level. If AP/AM locations are fixed, AP/AMs will not move from their
fixed locations during initialization or optimization. Clicking on this button will fix the locations of existing APs
and AMs. You only need to click this button on either the AP or AM Plan page.
AM Plan Page
The AM Plan page uses the information entered in the modeling pages to locate AMs in the building(s) you
described and calculate the optimum placement for the AMs. All of the options on the Floors page can also be
viewed and configured on the AM Plan page. The AM Plan page also includes some additional options, such as
initializing, optimizing, and fixing AP/AM locations.
Initialize
Initialize the Algorithm by clicking Initialize. This makes an initial placement of the AMs and prepares RF Plan for
the task of determining the optimum location for each of the AMs. When you click Initialize, the AM symbols
appear on the floor plan.
