Switch Information 3-7

3. Refer to the Switch Statistics area for the following read-only information about associated MUs:

Number of MUs

Displays the total number of MUs currently associated to the switch.

Associated

 

Number of APs

Displays the total number of access ports currently adopted by the switch.

Adopted

 

Number of Radios

Displays the total number of radios currently adopted by the switch.

Adopted

 

4. Refer to the Traffic section for read-only network traffic information for associated APs and radios:

Pkts per second

Displays the packet transmission rate for received and transmitted packets over last 30

 

seconds and 1 hour.

Throughput

Displays the traffic throughput for packets received, packets transmitted and total packets

 

over last 30 seconds and 1 hour. The throughput value can help identify network bandwidth

 

and utilization issues negatively impacting performance.

Avg. Bit Speed

Displays the average bit speed for the switch over last 30 seconds and 1 hour. Use the

 

average bit speed value to help determine overall network speeds and troubleshoot network

 

congestion.

%Non-unicast pkts Displays the percentage of non-unicast packets seen (received & transmitted) by the switch over last 30 seconds and 1 hour. Non-unicast traffic includes both multicast and broadcast traffic.

5.The RF Status section displays the following read-only RF radio signal information for associated APs and radios:

Avg Signal

Displays the average signal strength for MUs associated with the switch over the last 30

 

seconds and 1 hour. The higher the signal, the closer the MU.

Avg Noise

Displays the average RF noise for all MUs associated with the selected WLAN. MU noise for

 

the last 30 seconds is displayed in black and the number in blue represents MU noise for the

 

last hour. If MU noise is excessive, consider moving the MU closer to the access port, or in

 

area with less conflicting network traffic. Excessive noise may also be an indication of

 

network interference.

Avg SNR

Displays the average Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) for all MUs associated with the switch. The

 

Signal to Noise Ratio is an indication of overall RF performance on your wireless network.

6.Refer to the Errors section for the following read-only packet error and loss information for associated access ports and radios:
