Device Classification Rules
ExtremeLocation allows classification of the devices seen by it into the following categories:
•
Asset
•
Associate
•
Visitor
•
Associate Personal Devices
The classification happens according to the following rules:
1 Any device classified manually using imported csv file is classified as such immediately.
2 Any devices with Extreme, Symbol, or Motorola OUIs are marked as Asset first. These devices are
subject to reclassification when other rules are run later.
3 Associate Personal Devices classification is disabled by default. When Associate Personal Device
