Switch Information

3-7

3. Refer to the

Switch Statistics

area for the following read-only information about associated MUs:

4. Refer to the

Traffic

section for read-only network traffic information for associated APs and radios:

5. The

RF Status

section displays the following read-only RF radio signal information for associated APs

and radios:

6. Refer to the

Errors

section for the following read-only packet error and loss information for associated

access ports and radios:

Number of MUs
Associated

Displays the total number of MUs currently associated to the switch.

Number of APs
Adopted

Displays the total number of access ports currently adopted by the switch.

Number of Radios
Adopted

Displays the total number of radios currently adopted by the switch.

Pkts per second

Displays the packet transmission rate for received and transmitted packets over last 30
seconds and 1 hour.

Throughput

Displays the traffic throughput for packets received, packets transmitted and total packets
over last 30 seconds and 1 hour. The throughput value can help identify network bandwidth
and utilization issues negatively impacting performance.

Avg. Bit Speed

Displays the average bit speed for the switch over last 30 seconds and 1 hour. Use the
average bit speed value to help determine overall network speeds and troubleshoot network
congestion.

% Non-unicast pkts

Displays the percentage of non-unicast packets seen (received & transmitted) by the switch
over last 30 seconds and 1 hour. Non-unicast traffic includes both multicast and broadcast
traffic.

Avg Signal

Displays the average signal strength for MUs associated with the switch over the last 30
seconds and 1 hour. The higher the signal, the closer the MU.

Avg Noise

Displays the average RF noise for all MUs associated with the selected WLAN. MU noise for
the last 30 seconds is displayed in black and the number in blue represents MU noise for the
last hour. If MU noise is excessive, consider moving the MU closer to the access port, or in
area with less conflicting network traffic. Excessive noise may also be an indication of
network interference.

Avg SNR

Displays the average Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) for all MUs associated with the switch. The
Signal to Noise Ratio is an indication of overall RF performance on your wireless network.
