METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR MANAGING WIRELESS NETWORKS USING GEOGRAPHICAL-LEVEL AND SITE-LEVEL VISUALIZATION

摘要

A WLAN system and method enables network modeling and management through an easy-to-use user interface. A console coupled to the WLAN is configured to display a first set of graphical entities representing locations of the multiple sites in a geographical view, and display a second set of graphical entities in a site view representing a subset of the components selected in response to user input. An XML format may be used to display the various views on a browser operating within the console.
