The coverage areas shown in Figure 6 cannot share coverage and are not
supported by 3WXM. (However, separate, nonshared coverage areas can
overlap.)
Figure 6 Unsupported Shared Coverage Area Example
Keep the following in mind when planning shared coverage areas:
„
Two coverage areas using the same wireless technology cannot be
shared.
„
A coverage area using 802.11b and a coverage area using 802.11g
cannot be shared.
„
MAP access points placed in shared areas must be configured as
dual-radio models.
Drawing a Coverage Area
3WXM supports concave polygons, which have an internal angle greater
than 180 degrees. When drawing a polygon, make sure that two sides of
the polygon do not intersect each other, as shown in Figure 7. Also make
sure start and end points and the vertices are not too close.
