How To Add GPS markers to CMX

Step 1: Add GPS markers in Prime

For each map you want to use positioning on,  you have to add at least three GPS markers in your Cisco Prime Infrastructure.

To obtain coordinates for the GPS markers:

1. Use the following web page: https://debug.mazemap.com/poi-inspector/

2. Select the floor you want to create GPS markers for and zoom in if necessary

3. Click in the map to find lonlat coordinates for a point. Use easily recognisable points such as corners.

Step 2: Export maps from Cisco Prime, Import in CMX & Restart CMX

This has to be repeated every time you make changes to the maps (including GPS markers) in Cisco Prime.

Remember to restart the CMX after this

Step 3: Restart LIPI service

1. SSH into LIPI server

2. Run the following command: 

   # if docker running on local user docker restart lipi # or if docker as root: sudo docker restart lipi

    

Step 4: Check that GPS markers are loaded into LIPI

Check the following web page:

This will generate a report of all floors and their GPS markers.
