ShoreTel Mobility Router Administration Guide 109
The Mobility Router compares this information with its known access point list and adds the access
point as a known access point. The Mobility Router also sends fingerprints, a list of known cellular
networks, and a list of known access points to the ShoreTel Mobility Client.
If the ShoreTel Mobility Client finds that its list of known access points are missing fingerprints, the
ShoreTel Mobility Client sends the BSSID to the Mobility Router. The Mobility Router sends the
ShoreTel Mobility Client fingerprints.
If the ShoreTel Mobility Client already has location and access point information from what the Mobility
Router previously has sent, the ShoreTel Mobility Client sends a movement update to the Mobility
Router. The Mobility Router uses this information to keep track of the mobile device and does not send
any information to the ShoreTel Mobility Client.
Mobility Configuration Task List
Depending on your wireless network, the tasks that you complete to establish mobility settings can
differ.
The major steps in establishing mobility settings are:
1. Establish the enterprise location.
If your WLAN controller supports and you have configured location information, you can integrate
the controller with the Mobility Router.
You can also manually create the enterprise location:
Define the campus.
Associate buildings with the campus.
Specify floors for each building.
2. Specify Route Points as needed for the enterprise location.
3. Take calibration measurements at each Route Point using ShoreTel Mobility Calibrate. For more
information, refer to the “Using the ShoreTel Mobility Calibration Tool” application note.
Note
If you have Meru access points and have enabled Virtual Cell, you cannot take fingerprints for these
access points. This is because fingerprinting is based on a BSSID for an access point. Because
Virtual Cell uses one BSSID for all access points, fingerprinting is not possible.
