Cisco Cisco 2700 Series Wireless Location Appliance

Location appliance software release 2.0.48.0 supports Cisco 2700 and 2710 location appliances that 
operate with Cisco Wireless LAN Solution version 3.2, 3.1, and 3.0. Location appliances enhance the 
built-in Cisco WCS location capabilities by computing, collecting, and storing historical location data, 
which can be displayed in Cisco WCS. In this role, the location appliance acts as a server to one or more 
Cisco Wireless Control System (WCS) servers, collecting, storing, and passing on the location from its 
assigned Cisco wireless LAN controllers.

You can install this software release on any 2700 or 2710 location appliance.

 describes compatibility between WCS and location server versions.

For instructions on using Cisco WCS to install this software on location appliances, refer to the Cisco 
Wireless Control System Configuration Guide.
