Summary:Example method includes: reporting, by a network device, a detection of a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacon message from a first BLE device deployed in a wireless local area network (WLAN) serving a plurality of tenants; receiving, by the network device, information about a first tenant assigned to the first BLE device from a server; determining, by the network device, a first universally unique identifier (UUID) uniquely corresponding to the first tenant; and configuring, by the network device, the first BLE device to broadcast a first plurality of BLE beacon messages using the first UUID, wherein a second and different BLE device deployed in the WLAN is configured to broadcast a second plurality of BLE beacon messages using a second UUID that is different from the first UUID, the second UUID uniquely corresponding to a second tenant different from the first tenant in the plurality of tenants.
