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

Figure 61: Managed AP Status

The following tabs are available from the Managed AP Status page:

•Summary—Lists the APs managed by the switch and provides summary information about them.

• Detail—Shows detailed status information collected from the AP.

• Radio Summary—Shows the channel, transmit power, and number of associated wireless clients for all managed APs.

• Radio Detail—From the Radio Summary page, click the MAC address of the AP to view detailed status for a radio

interface. Use the radio button to navigate between the two radio interfaces.

• Neighbor APs—Shows the neighbor APs that the specified AP has discovered through periodic RF scans on the

selected radio interface.

• Neighbor Clients—Shows information about wireless clients associated with an AP or detected by the AP radio.

•VAP—Shows summary information about the virtual access points (VAPs) for the selected AP and radio interface on

the APs that the switch manages.

Table 30 describes the fields you see on the Summary page for the managed access point status.
