By default, when you integrate a WLAN controller with the Mobility Router, the Mobility Router sends
SNMP queries to the WLAN controller for information.
Optionally, you can configure the Mobility Router to receive SNMP trap information about transmit
power from the WLAN controller. If you choose to do this, you need to define the Mobility Router as a
trap receiver on the WLAN controller.
Optionally, if you have enterprise location information configured for any of these WLAN controllers,
you can enable the integration of this information with the Mobility Router. When you integrate location
information, the Mobility Router gets the following information from the WLAN controller:
Basic service set identifier (BSSID) list
Service set identifier (SSID) list
Location information (for example, campus, building, floor, and so on) (not supported for Cisco
controllers)
Transmit power (not supported for Meru controllers)
The Mobility Router uses the WLAN controller information in conjunction with fingerprints that you
create and location information received from mobile devices as users roam within the enterprise to
maintain and update location information.
How the Mobility Router Dynamically Learns Location Information from
the ShoreTel Mobility Client
The Mobility Router learns location information from the ShoreTel Mobility Client on the mobile devices
as users roam from known access points to unknown access points.
If the ShoreTel Mobility Client does not know an access point, the ShoreTel Mobility Client sends a
location query to the Mobility Router with the following data:
Wi-Fi information—MAC address, IP address, BSSID, and SSID
GSM information—Cellular ID, LAC, MNC, and MCC
Note
If you have location information configured for your controller, we recommend that you synchronize
this information with the Mobility Router.
Note
Only Nokia Clients share the following location data with the Mobility Router.
