High-level design
When Fine Time Measurement (FTM) is enabled in a site with HPE Aruba Networking Access Points, the following process takes place -
-
The APs engage in the exchange of FTM information.
-
The APs transmit FTM telemetry to HPE Aruba Networking Central.
-
Central performs detailed calculations to determine the location coordination information (LCI).
-
Central pushes the calculated LCI to the APs.
-
If the Advertise Location feature is enabled, APs can broadcast this information, allowing client devices to perform their own location calculations.
