The Mobility 5181 Access Point has functionality to display robust transmit and receive statistics
for its WAN and LAN port. Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) stats can also be displayed
collectively for each enabled WLAN as well as individually for up to 16 specific WLANs.

Transmit and receive statistics can also be displayed for the Mobility 5181 Access Point’s 802.11a
and 802.11b/g radios. An advanced radio statistics page is also available to display retry
histograms for specific data packet retry information.

Associated Client stats can be displayed collectively for associated Clients and individually for
specific Clients. An echo (ping) test is also available to ping specific Clients to assess the strength
of the AP association.

Finally, the Mobility 5181 Access Point can detect and display the properties of other APs detected
within the Mobility 5181 Access Point radio coverage area. The type of AP detected can be
displayed as well as the properties of individual APs.
