Question
A university campus uses Cisco Catalyst Center and Cisco Spaces to provide indoor wayfinding for students and guests by leveraging the university mobile app. IT administrators notice that location tracking is inaccurate in multistory buildings, especially near staircases and elevators. Upon investigation, they find that overlapping signals from APs on different floors are causing triangulation errors. The IT team already ensured that APs are not placed directly above or below each other. However, the problem persists, and location accuracy remains unreliable near vertical structures. Which action must the IT team take to resolve the issue?
Options
- AConfigure all the APs in the building to use the same channel to provide consistent signal
- BIncrease the maximum allowable client connections per AP to compensate for signal overlap in
- CAdjust AP transmit power and orientation to minimize vertical signal propagation between floors
- DEnable coverage hole detection and mitigation to address areas with inconsistent signal strength

Explanation
Location accuracy in multistory environments is affected when AP signals bleed vertically between floors, especially near staircases and elevators. The correct solution is to tune AP transmit power and antenna orientation to limit vertical propagation and focus coverage horizontally, which improves triangulation accuracy in Cisco Spaces and Catalyst Center.
