Wi-Fi Access Point Template

This template creates a configuration that maps network printers and defines a default printer based on the location of the remote device using its NetBIOS name. It can be found in the LOCATION AWARE PRINTING category when filtered for REMOTE platform.

We will perform the following steps:

Step 1: Prerequisites

If the required deviceTRUST components (Agent, Console, Client Extension and License) are not yet installed, please visit the Getting Started for Remote guide and complete step 1 to 5 and then continue here with step 2 below.

Step 2: Contexts

The template has imported the following contexts:

Context Description Customizations
Device Location
Defines the location of a remote device based on its connected Wi-Fi access point.
You must update the following context condition with data suitable for your environment
REMOTE - NETWORK WI-FI BSSID Any Of 3 ITEMS,... Replace ENTER_YOUR_WIFI_BSSID_HERE_X for Floor 1, Floor 2, Floor 3,… with the Wi-Fi BSSIDs representing the target location. Example: 00:01:02:03:04:EE

Note:

If a context is not needed, it can be deactivated or deleted. In addition, the corresponding task sequence within the relevant action must be deleted too.

Step 3: Actions

The template includes an enforcement action that actively configures the session. By default, the enforcement action is enabled.

Action Description Default State Customizations
Conditional Configuration - Printer Management - Wi-Fi access point
Maps network printers and defines a default printer based on the location of the remote device using its connected Wi-Fi access point.
Activated
You must update the following context condition with data suitable for your environment
MAP PRINTER Unknown, MAP PRINTER Floor 1, MAP PRINTER Floor 2,... Configure printers for each location within the target map printer task. Example: \DTLDPS01\Corporate Printer

Note:

If the action has been disabled, the context will still be created.
