7 Monitoring Status and Statistics

Monitoring Managed Access Point Status

From the Monitoring > Access Points > Managed Access Points page, you can access a variety of information about each AP that the switch manages. The pages you access from the Status tab provide configuration and association information about managed APs and their neighbors. The pages you access from the Statistics page display information about the number of packets and bytes transmitted and received on different interfaces.

Figure 59 shows the Managed Access Point Status page with three managed APs.
