Abstract

Techniques are described by which a network management system (NMS) is configured determine a specific wireless channel assigned to a first AP device. The NMS is further configured to determine one or more neighboring AP devices that are within a certain proximity of the first AP device and generate a packetized scan command for each of the one or more neighboring AP devices. The NMS is further configured to send the packetized scan command to each of the one or more neighboring AP devices and receive, from the first AP device and each of the one or more neighboring AP devices, signal samples of a client device connected to the first AP device on the specific wireless channel assigned to the first AP device. The NMS is further configured to, based on the received signal samples, determine a location within the site of the client device.
