trigger-smart-sensor

This command triggers the calibration function that provisions APs as sensors within a wireless deployment.

The WiNG 7.2.1 smart-sensor feature uses an algorithm to auto-provision APs as sensors within a site (RF Domain). When triggered , the algorithm, based on inputs from the Smart-RF neighbor table, creates a cluster of cells . Each cell in the cluster represents an AP and adjacent cells are the AP's neighbor. The algorithm then identifies APs with best coverage area and provisions them as sensors.

Note

Note

Smart-sensor is supported only on AP8533 (tri-radio) model AP. Issue the 'trigger-smart-sensor' command through the controller (RFS4000, NX5500, NX7500, NX9500, NX9600 and VX9000) on the AP's RF Domain. Alternately, if the RF-Domain manager is an AP8533, you can trigger Smart-sensor calibration locally on the RF-Domain manager.
This command works in conjunction with the following commands:
  1. smart-sensor - enables the Smart-sensor feature.
  2. smart-sensor-algorithm - selects the algorithm type (for dense or sparse deployment) to use.

Supported in the following platforms:

  • Access Points — AP8533

Syntax

trigger-smart-sensor on <RF-DOMAIN-NAME>

Parameters

trigger-smart-sensor on <RF-DOMAIN-NAME>
trigger-smart-sensor Triggers the calibration function to select the sensor APs.
Note: By default the smart-sensor feature is disabled. Before triggering the algorithmic function, in the Smart-RF policy context, enable smart-sensor and select the algorithm best suited for your deployment. For more information, see smart-sensor and smart-sensor-algorithm.
on <RF-DOMAIN-NAME> Triggers the calibration function on a specified RF Domain.
  • <RF-DOMAIN-NAME> - Specify the RF Domain name. The calibration function is triggered on the specified RF Domain. It results in a list of APs best suited to be provisioned as sensors ans also enables them as sensors.
    Note: As a best practice, we recommend the RF Domain should consist of only AP8533 APs.

Examples

Smart-sensor calibration triggered from the controller on the AP's RF Domain:
nx9500-6C8809#trigger-smart-sensor ?
  on  On RF-Domain
  <cr>

nx9500-6C8809#
nx9500-6C8809#trigger-smart-sensor on smt-sensor

Alternately, if the RF-Domain manager is AP8533, you can trigger Smart-sensor calibration locally on the RF-Domain manager.
