location-server
Configures the ExtremeLocation server‘s hostname on the RF Domain. When configured, RF
Domain access points use a Websocket to forward 802.11 frames and BLE beacons to the
specified ExtremeLocation server.
Starting with WiNG 7.1.2, AP5XX APs will not use WIPS to collect WiFi packets and BLE
(iBeacons and Eddystone) beacons. The information will be collected in the Collector Table
and forwarded to the ExtremeLocation server from the Collector Table.
ExtremeLocation is a highly scalable indoor locationing platform that gathers
location-related analytics, such as visitor trends, peak and off-peak times, dwell time,
heat-maps, etc. to enable entrepreneurs deeper visibility at a venue. To enable the location
tracking system, the ExtremeLocation server should be up and running and the RF Domain
configuration should point to the ExtremeLocation server.
Supported in the following platforms:
- Access Points — AP505i, AP510i/e,
AP560i/h, AP7522, AP7532, AP7562, AP7612, AP7632, AP7662, AP8432, AP8533
- Service Platforms
— NX5500, NX7500, NX9500, NX9600, VX9000
Syntax
location-server 1 ip <EL-SERVER-IP/HOSTNAME> {port <1-65535>}
Parameters
location-server 1 ip <IP/HOSTNAME> {port <1-65535>}
location-server 1 ip <IP/HOSTNAME> |
Identifies the ExtremeLocation server by its hostname
- 1 – Sets the server ID as 1. As of now only one
ExtremeLocation server is configurable.

Enabling Data
(WiFi and BLE Beacons) forwarding to the ExtremeLocation Server
- Configure sensor
policy.
nx9500-6C8809(config-sensor-policy-ble)#rssi-interval-duration 35
- In the RF Domain context:
- Use the sensor
policy.
nx9500-6C8809(config-rf-domain-test)#use sensor-policy ble
- Configure the ExtremeLocation server
hostname.
nx9500-6C8809(config-rf-domain-test)#location-server 1 ip feeds.extremelocation.com
- Configure the ExtremeLocation
TenantID.
