Network Management

Hello,

Browsing the forum... don't see a way to do this: 

Can Airwave output PDF or even JPG/PNG of floorplans that include access points?

Like so:

Currently I'm using screenshots, but I'd like to get be able to get something with higher resolution/quality, if possible.

You can try the below,

• Go to Visualrf 
• Click on the list view for the maps
• You would see download map option towards right

Try this:

For an individual floor:

From the view that shows the building as a stack of floors (drill down into campus, then drill down into the building)

Right click on a floor -> bill of materials, uncheck all options -> ok

The output should be a word doc with the raw floor showing AP placement.

You can also do this from the campus view to get an entire building, or even from the network view to get the entire campus.

Works for me. Good info, Rob.

Rob,

Thanks for the suggestion... unfortunately, I don't get any graphic, just a table listing AP info.

Like so:

The word doc export should have a floor plan prior to the AP inventory table.

Mine returns:

If you're still not seing the floor plan like so, then please open a support case and a support engineer can help debug.

Thanks, will do

"Create case" option seems to be futzed:

Thanks for the heads up.  We recently migrated into the HPE tracking system, so things may have broken during the move.  Will get the admins to take a look into it.

OK, I just tried again (to create a case)... no go. Same bug, webform looks wacky.

Could I get someone to create a case for me, in the meantime?

I'd really like to print out my building maps (without doing screenshots)

@the.sleeper: I've pinged support to open a support case for you.

Rob/everyone,

OK, I finally got my issue cleared up (needed to delete a VRF cache)

Here's a sample map of what I get when I do the BOM:

I didn't realize at first that the APs were included--that's how small they are.

But if you zoom in, they are there:

So, its close, but is there any way to increase the size of the AP icon?

(I tried tweaking the size in VisualRF, but that didn't seem to have an effect.)

Currently we do not have option in Airwave to increase the AP size in BOM report, I would recommand to file feature request.

Pavan

Thanks Pavan, could you point me to where to do that? 

(btw, I'm still not able to create cases from threads)
