Video Overview

Video 1: Scale a Floorplan
Show Transcript
  1. From the left menu of the Juniper Mist portal, select Location > Live View.
  2. Select the site and the floorplan.
  3. Click Set Up Floorplan.
  4. Click Set Scale (near the top left corner of the floorplan).
  5. Drag a line between two points on the floorplan.

    For example, you might draw a line across the width of a room or the length of a hallway.

    Tip:

    If you don’t know the actual dimensions, look for a standard door on the floorplan and scale that door to 0.91 meters (3 feet). This will get you close to the actual scale.

  6. Click Enter a new length to scale image.
  7. Enter the measurement and the unit (Meters or Feet).
    Ensure that the scale is accurate. If a hallway is 60 feet long, the floorplan needs to show it as 60 feet long. Otherwise, the location information will be inaccurate.
  8. Click Done.
  9. Click Save in the upper-right corner of the page.

Now you're ready to add access points to the floorplan.
