Visualizing the Wireless Network
The WLAN Visualization component is an optional feature that graphically shows information about the
wireless network. WLAN Visualization uses a Java applet to display switches, APs, and associated wireless
clients. The WLAN Visualization tool can help you visualize where the APs and clients are in relationship to the
building.
This section contains the following subsections to help you manage the WLAN Visualization component of the
D-Link Unified Switch:
• WLAN Visualization Overview
• Importing and Configuring a Background Image
• Setting Up the Graph
• Checking the Location of an AP or Client
• Understanding the Menu Options and Icons
