The Aruba RF Plan Tool 31
1/22/04 Review Draft—CONFIDENTIAL
The Suggested AP Table lists the coordinates, power, location, power setting, and channel for
each of the APs that are shown in the floor plan.
AM Plan
The AM Plan feature calculates the optimum placement for your air monitors (AMs).
Running the Algorithm
Initialize
Initialize the Algorithm by clicking on the Initialize button. This makes an initial placement of
the air monitors and prepares RF Plan for the task of determining the optimum location for
each of the AMs. As soon as you click the Initialize button you will see the AM symbols
appear on the floor plan. Air Monitors are represented by this symbol.
Start
Click on the Start button to launch the optimizing algorithm. You will see the AM symbols
moving on the page as RF Plan finds the optimum location for each.
The process may take several minutes. You may watch the progress on the status bar of your
browser. The algorithm will stop when the movement is less than a threshold value calculated
based on the number of AMs. The threshold value may be seen in the status bar at the bottom
of the browser window.
