Finding an AP on a Floor
Before implementing a wireless network, configure a floor plan that uses RF Planning and Location.
You can select an AP access point from the Monitoring Equipment tree and display a floor map with
that AP selected. From this view, you can generate visualizations of operational statistics such as
RSSI, re-transmits, SNR, and signal level to determine problem areas.
To find an AP on the floor:
1. Click on the Monitor button in the main RingMaster Navigation Bar.
2. Expand the Site list in the Organizer panel and select the access point to view.
3. RingMaster automatically opens the Floor Viewer panel displaying a floor map with the
selected access point highlighted.
4. Select a statistic from the Task panel to generate a topographical visualization of that data. (If
you choose the RF Interference, High Utilization, or Coverage Hole options and re-transmit
rates within the depicted area that do not exceed 10% of total network bytes, RingMaster
displays a message dialog instead of generating a visualization.) In the example below, the
selected access point is highlighted and RSSI for the coverage area is depicted in the Floor
Viewer.
