Table 8 3WXM Reports (continued)

Report

Description

 

 

Client Errors

Provides data on client-related health in the

 

network over time; for example, if there is a

 

large number of association failures in some

 

area of the network.

 

 

Watch List Clients

Contains detailed information for the clients

 

on the Watch List.

 

 

Network Usage

Provides information about network resource

 

usage and client activity.

 

 

RF Summary

Provides information about overall network

 

health using selected radio statistics. It can be

 

used to compare RF environments across the

 

network and isolate potential problem areas.

 

 

Radio Details

Provides a detailed set of statistical

 

information for each radio in the selected

 

MAP.

 

 

Rogue Details

Provides current and historical information

 

for a selected rogue.

 

 

Rogue Summary

Provides information for all visible rogues for

 

a selected time.

 

 

RF Plan

What is optimization?: Importing RF measurement data into an RF model

Optimization

to improve the accuracy of the model.

 

Purpose of this section: Provides an overview of optimization methods.

 

Why is this important?: A network plan contains the configuration settings

 

that determine the performance of your wireless network. Optimization

 

of the RF model leads to a more successful RF plan. The ultimate result is

 

an accurate visualization of your RF coverage, better-defined statistics for

 

monitoring, and the ability to more accurately plan for and improve

 

network performance.

You can optimize your network based on user and network statistics gathered from:

„The monitoring data in 3WXM

„A site survey
