Configure Presence Analytics

First, configure a network policy.

Note

Note

It is not necessary to change the default values if devices are connected over faster links.

Adjust these settings to accommodate situations where devices are connected over slower links and where the data must be aggregated at different rates.

This task is part of the network policy configuration workflow. Use this task to specify how frequently APs send data to ExtremeCloud‌ IQ.

  1. Go to Configure > Network Policies.
  2. Select an existing policy, and then select Edit, or select Add.
  3. After you save the Policy Details, select NEXT to open the 2 Wireless page.
  4. From the Application Management menu, select Presence Analytics.
  5. Toggle the Enable Presence Analytics setting ON.
  6. Type a Name.
  7. Optional: Type a Description.

    Although optional, entering a description is helpful for troubleshooting and for identification.

  8. For Trap Interval, specify (in seconds) how often the presence sensor reports data to ExtremeCloud‌ IQ.

    Lowering this interval below 15 seconds pushes data faster but also increases network traffic. Raising this interval above 15 seconds pushes data at a slower rate and decreases network traffic.

  9. Specify the Aging Time (in seconds) for a given presence profile.
  10. Specify the Aggregate Time interval (in seconds) for the period of time that aggregation will occur for the presence profile.
