User tracking / RFID

Abertay — Sat, 03 Jul 2021 22:39:20 GMT

Hi,

I was wondering if someone could please clear up a bit of confusion i'm having.

Are the Cisco WLC4400's with Cisco WCS 5 management capable of any form of device tracking or RFID tracking without adding a 2700 device?

The documentation is a bit confusing and seems to suggest it does.

It would be nice to be able to find devices by looking on the maps or being able to add tags to a few bits of equipment.

thanks,

Matt.

You can get WCS with location but it will only allow you to tack on client. If you are looking to do true RFID tracking then you will need a location appliance. You will also need WCS and a WLC.

You need location appliance and upgrade your WCS license if its Base To APOL(locations license) you can access from Cisco site this documents just type this word in the search Cisco WCS Licensing and Ordering Guide

Thanks

Yes you need the WCS with Location. Don't remember how much more that is from the base:)
