Access Point Statistics

Access points contain an internal Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. DHCP can

gateway etc.) from a DHCP server to a host.

To view DHCP server statistics:

1. Select the Statistics menu from the Web UI.

2. Select System from the navigation pane (on the left-hand side of the screen). Expand a RF

Domain and select one of its connected access points.

3. Select DHCP and expand the menu to reveal its sub menu items.
