Location Matters

Location is a critical element of real-time enterprise visibility. In the real-time enterprise, knowing the location of connected devices and people enables visibility into the state of both the network and the business.

Many 802.11 networks provide simple client location information. While helpful for determining proximity and WLAN association behavior, this is not always enough information to enable higher level business decisions.
