Configuring an IAP for Analytics and Location Engine Support
The Analytics and Location Engine (ALE) is designed to gather client information from the network, process it,
and share it through a standard API. The client information gathered by ALE can be used for business purposes
by analyzing a client’s Internet behavior such as shopping preferences.
ALE includes a location engine that calculates the associated and unassociated device location every 30
seconds by default. For every device on the network, ALE provides the following information through the
Northbound API:
l
Client username
l
IP address
l
MAC address
l
Device type
l
Application firewall data showing the destinations and applications used by associated devices
l
Current location
l
Historical location
ALE requires the IAP placement data to be able to calculate location for the devices in a network.
ALE with Instant
The Instant 6.3.1.1-4.0 release supports Analytics and Location Engine (ALE). The ALE server acts as a primary
interface to all third-party applications and the IAP sends client information and all status information to the
ALE server.
To integrate IAP with ALE, the ALE server address must be configured on an IAP. If the ALE sever is configured
with a host name, the VC performs a mutual certificated-based authentication with the ALE server before
sending any information.
Enabling ALE Support on an IAP
You can configure an IAP for ALE support by using the Instant UI or the CLI.
