Table 8: Output for show ap counters (continued)

 

Field

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

TKIP Pkt Replays

Number of TKIP packets that were resent to the AP by a client.

 

 

 

A low value (under about one hundred) does not necessarily

 

 

 

indicate a problem. However, if this counter is increasing steadily

 

 

 

or has a very high value (in the hundreds or more), a Denial of

 

 

 

Service (DoS) attack might be occurring. Contact Nortel TAC.

 

 

 

 

 

 

CCMP Pkt Decrypt Err

Number of times a decryption error occurred with a packet

 

 

 

encrypted with CCMP.

 

 

 

Occasional decryption errors do not indicate a problem.

 

 

 

However, steadily increasing errors or a high number of errors

 

 

 

can indicate that data loss is occurring in the network. Generally,

 

 

 

this is caused by a key mismatch between a client and the AP. To

 

 

 

locate the client that is experiencing decryption errors (and

 

 

 

therefore is likely causing this counter to increment on the AP),

 

 

 

use the show sessions network session-id session-idcommand

 

 

 

for each client on the radio. After you identify the client that is

 

 

 

causing the errors, disable and reenable the client (wireless NIC).

 

 

 

 

 

 

CCMP Pkt Transfer Ct

Total number of CCMP packets sent and received by the radio.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Radio Recv Phy Err Ct

Number of times radar caused packet errors. If this counter

 

 

 

increments rapidly, there is a problem in the RF environment.

 

 

 

Note: This counter increments only when radar is detected. Rate-

 

 

 

specific Phy errors are instead counted in the PhyError columns

 

 

 

for individual data rates.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Radio Adjusted Tx Pwr

Current power level set on the radio. If RF Auto-Tuning of power

 

 

 

is enabled, this value is the power set by RF Auto-Tuning. If RF

 

 

 

Auto-Tuning is disabled, this value is the statically configured

 

 

 

power level.

 

 

 

 

 

 

802.3 Packet Tx Ct

Number of raw 802.3 packets transmitted by the radio. These are

 

 

 

LocalTalk (AppleTalk) frames. This counter increments only if

 

 

 

LocalTalk traffic is present.

 

 

 

 

 

 

No Receive Descriptor

Number of packets for which the AP could not create a

 

 

 

descriptor. A descriptor describes a received packet’s size and its

 

 

 

location in AP memory. The AP buffers descriptors, and clears

 

 

 

them during interframe spaces.

 

 

 

This counter increments if the AP runs out of buffers for received

 

 

 

packets. This condition can occur when a noise burst temporarily

 

 

 

floods the air and the AP attempts to buffer the noise as packets.

 

 

 

Buffer overruns are normal while an AP is booting. However, if

 

 

 

they occur over an extended period of time when the AP is fully

 

 

 

active, this can indicate RF interference.

 

 

 

 

 

 

PktTxCount

Number of packets transmitted by the radio.

 

 

 

 

 

 

MultiPktDrop

Number of multicast packets dropped by the radio due to a buffer

 

 

 

overflow on the AP. This counter increments if there is too much

 

 

 

multicast traffic or there is a problem with the multicast packets.

 

 

 

Normally, this counter should be 0.

 

 

 

 

 

 

MultiBytDrop

Number of multicast bytes dropped by the radio due to a buffer

 

 

 

overflow on the AP. (See the description for MultiPktDrop.)
