Draw the Boundary Walls

You must draw the outside boundary of the building. The area within the boundary is used to determine device location and coverage. The area outside the boundary is ignored.

To draw the boundary walls:

  1. To access the floor plan feature, select Configure > Sites > Add > Floor Plans. Alternatively, you can select a site from the list to edit and select Configure Site > Floor Plans > Manage Floor Plans.
  2. Choose the floor map you want to edit. From the Draw Tools menu, under Draw Boundary, select GUID-5DFC53BC-E428-4C28-BAAC-5EDEF81AA58A-low.png.
    The pen tool is enabled.
  3. To anchor the beginning of the boundary line, select a corner of the outside boundary.
  4. Select each corner to anchor the line. The drawing line zigzags across the image as you anchor each corner.
