The ExtremeCloud IQ Mobile Companion app (AFC Mobile app) utilizes Fused Location Positioning (FLP). FLP is a technology that allows devices to use a combination of GPS, cellular towers, WiFi positioning, Bluetooth beacons for more accurate location tracking.
Note the following:
The ability of the AFC Mobile app to derive geo-location coordinates depends on the building properties. If the AFC Mobile app cannot derive a location, the geo-location coordinates are unknown. Therefore, no 6 GHz SP operation can be provided by APs at that location.
The persistence of the coordinates provided by the AFC Mobile app depends on the physical location and the APs deployed at the time the operator assigns the coordinates with the app. The Geo-Location Agent records a Wi-Fi RF fingerprint of the anchor AP that includes a list of three or more neighboring APs. The AFC Mobile app provided coordinates persist through a power cycle only if the Wi-Fi RF fingerprint after the power cycle matches the fingerprint saved by the Geo-Location Agent when the coordinates were originally set.
The operator must reassign the anchor AP's geo-location coordinates in the following cases:
The physical location of the anchor APs and their immediate neighboring APs is changed.
Anchor APs and their immediate neighboring APs are replaced or upgraded to newer APs.
There are unexpected changes in the RF environment.
