  • 1.  Regarding the GNSS function on the access point

    Posted 29 days ago
    Hello everyone,
     
    I recently purchased an Aruba access point (AP-615). On Aruba's website, it was described that this access point has GNSS and can confirm indoor locations. However, I cannot find any GNSS operation settings in the access point device settings or Aruba Central settings.
     
    I am not sure if this access point device is not supported or if the application is not yet supported, but has anyone been able to get the GNSS function to work?
     
    Thank you.

    The GPS support for automatic location determination is a function of Open Locate, which hasn't been fully made available at this point.

    Thank you for your response.
    I see. It's not yet officially available as RTLS. I can't find much information about OpenLocate on the Internet, so I don't know much about it, but I hope it will be available soon.

    RTLS has nothing to do with the feature.  For indoor APs, the GPS is all about feeding 802.11mc (FTM) capabilities.
