Using the Site Survey Tool
This tool allows a user to "sniff out" all transmitting Access Points within the detection range of the
internal wireless card (FIG. 15). Once the
Site Survey
button is pressed, the device displays the
Site
Survey
page, which contains the following categories:
Network Name
(SSID) - Access Point names
Channel
(RF) - Channel currently being used by the AP (
Access Point
)
Security
(if detectable - such as
WEP
,
OPEN
and
UNKNOWN
) - security protocol enabled
on the AP
Signal
- displaying the individual APs’ signal level.
MAC Address
- Unique identification of the transmitting Access Point
To access the Site Survey Tool:
1.
From the
Protected Setup
page, press the
Wireless Settings
button to open the
Wireless Settings
page.
2.
Press the
Site Survey
button. This action launches the
Wireless Site Survey
page, which displays a
listing of all detected APs in the communication range of the internal card.
The card scans its environment every four seconds and adds any new APs found to the list.
Every scan cycle updates the signal strength fields.
Access points are tracked by MAC Address.
If the AP’s SSID is set as a blank, then
N/A
is displayed within the
SSID
field.
If the AP’s SSID is not broadcast, it will not show up on the
Wireless Networks
screen.
If an AP is displayed in the list is not detected for 10 scans in a row, it is then removed
from the screen. In this way, a user can walk around a building and track access points as
they move in and out of range.
3.
Sort the information provided on this page by pressing on a column name. This moves the sorting
arrow to that column, where it may be toggled up or down.
Up arrow
- indicates that the information is being sorted in a descending order.
Down arrow
- indicates that the information is being sorted in an ascending order.
