METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR LOCATION BASED CONFIGURATION OF A WIRELESS ACCESS POINT (WAP) AND AN ACCESS DEVICE IN A HYBRID WIRED/WIRELESS NETWORK

摘要

Aspects of the invention provide a method and system for location based configuration of a wireless access point and an access device in a hybrid wired/wireless network. A method for providing location based configuration in a hybrid wired/wireless network may include identifying a location of a network device within the hybrid wired/wireless network. Configuration information corresponding to the determined location of the network device may be determined. The determined configuration information may be communicated to the networking device in order to facilitate location based configuration of the network device. The network device may include, but is not limited to, an access device, an access point and a switching device.
