Showing MUs
Display associated MUs on a site map to assess areas of good radio coverage versus congestion and
determine whether MUs are optimally placed in respect to their associated radios and other MUs in
their vicinity. A periodic search and assessment of MUs is a recommended practice to prevent data theft
from unauthorized devices. MUs are detected based on their associations with WMS supported radio
devices.
NOTE
To be optimally detected, the MAC address of the MU should be added to the WLAN MU ACL of the associated
controller to ensure an option is in place to exclude potential rogues from network interoperability.
To display the location of associated MUs on a site map:
1 Select the My Network main menu item.
2 Select RF View.
3 Select a floor on which you would like to locate MUs.
Once a target floor is selected, the Show MUs menu option becomes enabled within the RF Views
tab.
4 Select Show MUs.
A Loading MUs screen displays asking you to wait while WMS calculate the MU locations. WMS
begins polling radios within the site to detect MU location.
NOTE
If no MUs are detected, the Loading MUs screen displays a message stating no associated MUs were detected at
this time and to try again after the next polling interval.
When MUs are detected, they display as a unique looking mobile device with a flashy red circle
(with a black center) on its lower left. This aides in its identification in respect to the other devices in
its vicinity, as controllers and access points do not display this.
5 From the My Networks menu, select a device radio from amongst those supporting the site.
