Table 8: Output for show ap counters (continued)

FieldDescription

The counters above are global for all data rates. The counters below are for individual data rates.

Note: If counters for lower data rates are incrementing but counters for higher data rates are not incrementing, this can indicate poor throughput. The poor throughput can be caused by interference. If the cause is not interference or the interference cannot be eliminated, you might need to relocate the AP in order to use the higher data rates and therefore improve throughput.

TxUniPkt	Number of unicast packets transmitted by the radio.
TxMultiPkt	Number of multicast packets transmitted by the radio.
TxUniByte	Number of unicast bytes transmitted by the radio.
TxMultiByte	Number of multicast bytes transmitted by the radio.
RxPkt	Number of packets received by the radio.
RxByte	Number of bytes received by the radio.
UndcrptPkt	Number of undecryptable packets received by the radio. It is
	normal for this counter to increment even in stable networks and
	does not necessarily indicate an attack. For example, a client
	might be sending incorrect key information. However, if the
	counter increments rapidly, there might be a problem in the
	network.
UndcrptByte	Number of undecryptable bytes received by the radio. (See the
	description for UndcrptPkt.)
PhyError	Number of packets that could not be decoded by the AP. This
	condition can have any of the following causes:
	• Collision of an 802.11 packet.
	• Packet whose source is too far away, thus
	rendering the packet unintelligible by the time it
	reaches the AP.
	• Interference caused by an 802.11b/g phone or
	other source.
	It is normal for this counter to be about 10 percent of the total
	RxByte count. It is also normal for higher data rates to have
	higher Phy error counts than lower data rates.

show ap dual-home

To display connection information for APs configured on a WSS, use the show ap global command on one of the switches where the AP is configured.
