An active site survey is a method of measuring and validating the wireless coverage, capacity, and performance of a network in a specific environment. It involves deploying temporary APs in the proposed locations, collecting data using a survey tool, and analyzing the results to optimize the network design. A heat map is a graphical representation of the wireless signal strength, interference, noise, or other metrics in different areas of the site. A heat map with proposed AP locations and actual tested coverage is a deliverable that shows the customer the expected performance of the new 802.11ac-based solution, and allows the architect to fine-tune the AP placement, channel selection, transmit power, and antenna orientation. This deliverable also helps the customer to verify that the network meets their requirements for coverage, capacity, and quality of service. References:

In the event of an MM outage, MCs continue to use their existing licenses for 30 days, and the network remains up. However, you cannot change the configuration items in the controller network. In addition, the MM manages many of the higher level functions that can cause issues in the network if the MM fails. Aruba recommends a backup MM for these situations. From an economic point of view, a backup MM for a VMM is free. If a customer has a hardware MM, the customer must purchase a backup hardware MM.

The frequency of the radio wave is one of the most important factors that determines the antenna performance and compatibility. The antenna must be designed to operate at the same frequency band as the radio, otherwise the impedance mismatch will cause signal loss and reflection. The frequency also affects the size, shape, and radiation pattern of the antenna. For example, a lower frequency requires a larger antenna to achievethe same gain and directivity as a higher frequency antenna. The frequency also determines the available bandwidth and channel spacing for the wireless communication12. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that the antenna is designed for the frequency used by the radio. References:
