Monitoring Statistics

3.4Mobile Units

Mobile Units (MU) statistics provide information on MUs associated with the AP. The statistics include information on data sent and received, activity and association. An MU shows only in the Home/Foreign Agent Table screens when an MU has roamed to another AP on a different subnet. Once an MU has roamed, the MU IP Address displays on the Home Agent Table screen of the MU “home” AP with the IP Address of the Foreign Agent to tell the “home” AP where to forward packets.

The MU IP Address is also shown in the Foreign Agent Table and Regular screens of the new “foreign” AP to tell the new AP where to expect packets from for newly associated MUs. The AP Regular screen shows the MUs associated locally on the same subnet.
