Which two statements correctly describe the Wi-Fi location component of Juniper Mist’s location-based services?

Juniper Mist separates its Location-Based Services (LBS) into distinct functional areas: User Engagement (vBLE-based) and Asset Visibility (tracking assets via Wi-Fi or BLE). Understanding the licensing and default behavior is crucial for a successful deployment.

The Wi-Fi location component is designed to track devices that are connected to the Wi-Fi network or are simply probing (unconnected). While basic connectivity data is part of the standard management, the high-fidelity tracking of these devices on a map as "assets" or "clients" for location analytics is tied to specific licensing tiers.

First, Wireless Assurance (B) provides the foundational telemetry and data collection required for basic location visibility. However, to unlock the full "Asset Tracking" capabilities—where the system actively correlates coordinates and provides historical data for specific Wi-Fi devices—the Asset Visibility subscription (D) is required. This subscription is what enables the Mist Cloud to process and store the location data for tags and Wi-Fi clients beyond simple real-time display.

Regarding the other options: Statement A is incorrect because the Wi-Fi location component tracks Wi-Fi devices; tracking BLE tags (third-party or otherwise) falls under the BLE/vBLE location component. Statement C is incorrect because location services are typically not enabled by default to protect user privacy and optimize performance. An administrator must manually upload a floor plan, scale it, and enable "Wi-Fi Engagement" or "Asset Tracking" within the Site settings or individual Access Point configurations to begin collecting location data. Once enabled and properly licensed, the Mist AI engine uses RSSI data from multiple APs to provide location coordinates for any Wi-Fi-emitting device in the environment.
