My Ruckus/ZD can provide some minimal location services/information (by triangulation) And yours should too.

Ruckus should include a feature similar to:
This script I wrote that downloads the results of a "get detected" command from a ZD controller. (and processes the downloaded data a bit)

Now I can do this:

fgrep 10:68:3f:ef:15:da getdetected | ./apnames.sed
be-7982-3-n 10:68:3f:ef:15:da 128
be-7982-325 10:68:3f:ef:15:da 250
be-7372-229 10:68:3f:ef:15:da 341
be-7982-1-s 10:68:3f:ef:15:da 184
be-7982-3-s 10:68:3f:ef:15:da 360

To find all the APs that can see the mac address of a particular client, along w/ the Signal-To-Noise ratio (in dBx10) seen by each AP.

Now I can (mentally) triangulate the position of the client based on signal reports from each AP.

Let me know if anyone (else) wants this feature.

Whups.
I might have just made this script work w/ 9.9 instead of 9.7

Give this one a shot.

if your initial downloaded "getdetected...txt" file contains ony 12 columns and not 15, you might need the old version.
If so, find a way to get a message to me and I'll send you the old one directly.

I've poked around the Internet to find your address, but I'm guessing you're not the ex-U.S. Secretary of State? 😉

Would you be able to send me the 9.7 version?  My address is dot at ultamation dot com
