VLAN Probe from Real Time MapsNEW!

The VLAN probe action locates available VLANs for the selected AP. When the VLAN probe is complete, a table shows the host name, MAC address, available VLANs, unavailable VLANs, and their status.

Note

The VLAN Probe Utility is also available from the Device List for a connected device.

Use this task to verify the VLAN probe results and status of VLAN for selected device.

Go to Manage > Real Time Maps.
From the Global View location list, select a floor or use the Search field to search for a specific site, building, or floor.

Note
The Search field helps you find a specific location in a large network. Enter the first few characters to see a list of locations. The more characters you enter, the more precise the search results will be.

Note
The selected floor must include a floor plan. For more information, see Add a Floor Plan.
Select a connected AP from the floor plan, and then select the Actions tab.

Select Locate AP (blinking lights), and configure the VLAN Probe settings.
