Retrieving Wi-Fi access log data
Using Wi-Fi access logs, you can identify employees who might have come in contact with an employee who tested positive for a condition such as an infectious disease.
If your organization has zones with multiple Wi-Fi access points, Wi-Fi access logs can help identify the zones that an affected employee has visited over a specified time. This information in turn helps identify potentially exposed employee interactions by zones and time windows within workspace areas.
Contact Tracing provides the following
options:
- Manually upload data from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet by using the import Wi-Fi access logs option
- Automatically get the Wi-Fi access logs from external systems by using the integration option
Integration with the following systems is available:
- Integration with Mist Systems
- Use the Mist Systems API to automatically import the Wi-Fi access logs data into the Wi-Fi Access Register table.
- Integration with Cisco DNA Spaces
- Import the Cisco DNA Spaces Wi-Fi access data into the Wi-Fi Access Register
[sn_imt_tracing_wifi_access_register] table by either generating a proximity report or downloading the access data into a
spreadsheet and then uploading it.
- Microsoft Excel spreadsheet: Download the proximity report from Cisco DNA Spaces and attach the file in the diagnostic request task.
- Proximity report: Log in to the Cisco DNA
Spaces portal and generate the proximity report by providing the diagnostic request
task number. The proximity report containing the Wi-Fi access logs is posted into
the Wi-Fi Access Register table.
For more information, see Fetch potentially exposed user data from a data source.
- Wi-Fi access data files: Import Wi-Fi access
data from the files from a Secured FTP server into the Wi-Fi Access Register table.
Cisco DNA Spaces system uploads these raw data files containing the Wi-Fi access
data each day on a scheduled time. The data is imported from these files when you
run the diagnostic request to identify potentially exposed employees. Nota:The file from the SFTP server for a specific day is imported into the Wi-Fi Access Register table only once. Any subsequent diagnostic requests use the data in the table to generate the list of potentially exposed employees.
Nota:
You can use Wi-Fi access logs from Mist Systems or Wi-Fi access logs from a spreadsheet to identify potentially exposed
employees.
