ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for tracking and managing mobile devices in a wireless network are provided. For example, the method can include discovering wireless devices connected to the wireless network, collecting association information from access points, with the association information from an access point including information identifying a current association between the access point and an associated wireless device, and providing a visualization of current associations between the access points and corresponding associated wireless devices. A conflict resolution engine may be provided for resolving conflicting access point associations.
