• When the number of “Out collisions” is less than 1% of the “Bridge
out packets”
, this indicates that the wireless medium is performing
fine, i.e. protocol filtering is not required, but might still be
considered.
• When the number of “Out collisions” is more than 1% of the
“Bridge out packets”
, this indicates that the wireless medium is very
busy.
If the wireless medium is busy, and you do not see many users or
excessive traffic on the network, it might be worth investigating
whether protocol filtering will improve your network performance.
5. Compare the number of
8QLFDVW SDFNHWV RXW
to the number of
1RQ
8QLFDVW SDFNHWV RXW
.
• When the number of “Non-Unicast packets out” is relatively high
when compared to the number of “Unicast packets out”
, this might
indicate your network generates a large amount of network traffic.
This does not necessarily mean that the traffic load is caused by the
protocols, but it might be worth investigating whether protocol
filtering will improve your network performance.
