The profiles available depend on the Mobility Domain you selected in 
step 31. The profile you select applies to all radios associated with the 
coverage area. If you type the name of a radio profile that does not 
already exist, 3WXM creates it.

33 In the Wiring Closet list, select the wiring closet that contains the WX 

switch or switches to be connected to the shared MAPs. 

If the MAPs will be directly connected to WX switches, a wiring closet is 
required. If all the MAPs in the coverage area will be indirectly connected 
to WX switches through the network, a wiring closet is not required. 

34 In the Redundant Wiring Closet list, select the wiring closet that will 

provide redundant connection to the MAPs. This is required for directly 
connected MAPs, if you require the MAPs to have redundant 
connections. Otherwise, this is not required.

35 Click Finish to complete the wizard and create the coverage area. The 

coverage area is now displayed on your floor.

Add your direct MAPs or distributed MAPs to your network.

1 If you have not already done so, create a wiring closet and associate your 

WX switches to the closet. For more information, see “Create a Wiring 
Closet” on page 108.

2 Go to “Create Your MAPs” on page 99 for information about adding 

direct MAPs or distributed MAPs to your network. Once created, MAPs 
can be associated with a coverage area and added to the floor plan.

Associate both your distributed MAPs and direct MAPs to a coverage area 
on the floor. 

1 Select the RF Planning tool bar option.

2 In the Content panel, display the floor plan where the MAPs are to be 

installed.

3 In the Organizer panel, click on Coverage Areas.

4 Right-click the Coverage Area to which the MAPs are to be associated, 

and select Edit Properties from the menu. The Coverage Area Properties 
dialog for the selected coverage area appears.
