Chapter 1 Overview
Cisco 2700 Series Location Appliances
The location appliance can be backed up to any Cisco WCS Server into an operator-defined FTP folder,
and the location appliance can be restored from that Cisco WCS Server at any time and at defined
intervals. Also, the location appliance database can be synchronized with the Cisco WCS Server
database at any time.
Operators can use the location appliance features and download new application code to all associated
location appliances from any Cisco WCS Server.
When Cisco WCS is enhanced with a location appliance, Cisco WCS can display historical location data
for up to 1,500 Laptop Clients, Palmtop Clients, VoIP Telephone Clients, RFID (Radio Frequency
IDentifier) Asset Tags, Rogue Access Points, and Rogue Access Point Clients for each location
appliance in the Cisco Wireless LAN Solution.
Operators can configure location appliances to collect data for Cisco Wireless LAN Solution clients,
rogue access points and clients, RFID Asset Tags, and statistics at separate operator-defined intervals.
The location appliance uses two redundant back-panel 10/100/1000BASE-T ports to connect to one or
two network segments. It also features a back-panel power cord and front-panel ON/OFF switch. The
location appliance includes a back-panel DB-9 console port for initial configuration using a CLI console.
Note that each location appliance can be installed in any NOC (Network Operations Center) or wiring
closet from which it can communicate with its associated Cisco WCS Server(s) and Cisco Wireless LAN
Controllers.
