AFC Mobile App

Note

Note

The ExtremeCloud IQ Mobile Companion app is supported on both ExtremeCloud IQ and ExtremeCloud IQ Controller. You do not need separate apps for each system.

The ExtremeCloud IQ Mobile Companion app (AFC Mobile app) is a smart phone app that provides geo-location coordinates to anchor APs. Use it during deployment to assign geo-location coordinates to anchor APs that lack an integrated GPS unit or cannot obtain coordinates.

You can confirm if a GPS signal is available in a location using the AFC Mobile app. This is useful when you are planning your AFC deployment. For more information, see Confirm GPS Availability.

The Geo-Location Agent within ExtremeCloud IQ and ExtremeCloud IQ Controller uses the AFC Mobile app coordinates as long as it can ensure that the anchor AP to which the coordinates are assigned has not physically moved. If the Geo-Location Agent detects that an anchor AP has moved from its original location, the coordinates are removed from the system and you must use the AFC Mobile app to reassign coordinates.

For information on using the AFC Mobile App, see Set Anchor APs with AFC Mobile App.

The ExtremeCloud IQ Mobile Companion app is available for both Android and iOS. You can find it on Google Play or the Apple App store.
