Location Tagging of a Device or Location Tag Assignment
Device location tagging refers to the process by which a device obtains the label of a location. Tagging is of two types:
Automatic and Manual.
Automatic Location Tagging (Auto Location Tagging)
The system automatically assigns a location to a device depending on the Automatic Location Tagging policy
selected and the signal strength of the Sensors reporting the device (see Auto Location Tagging). Automatic Location
Tagging of a device depends on the location of the Sensors which are able to see the device. If all the Sensors
reporting a device are tagged to the Unknown location, the device is also tagged to the Unknown location.
Manual Location Tagging
You can change the location tag of a device manually in one of the following ways:
On the Devices screen, right-click the device row and select Change Location.
On the Locations screen, place the Authorized AP on the floor map.
On the AdministrationGlobal tabDevice SettingsImport Devices screen, specify the location to
which the device must be tagged.
If an AP or Client is manually tagged, the system never attempts to auto-tag it again. To re-enable auto-tagging for
that device, you must delete the device and let the system re-discover it.
