Dear All,

 

I have checked Youtube / Controller User Guide, but there a very little explanations about what/how Locate action for a device is used for & its implications in Controller GUI?

 

Questions:

1. Can anyone provide more informations, e.g in Videos, Youtube sources, articles, etc about it?

2. Can we Locate a Gateway/Router? As per explanation by User Guide manual, we can locate a switch & access points.

3. Is the Locate action used for auto filling up the Latitude/Longitude/Address informations e.g under here?

 

 

 

 

Below is a section i found under User Guide explaining the Locate action.

 

 

Below is the Locate action I am referring to:

That is not GPS location... it will blink the LED lights in a certain fashion for you to locate it in a server room.
