Attribute
Meaning
Multicast /
Broadcast Traffic
Total amount of multicast and broadcast traffic transmitted out of the
device wireless interface in Kbits.
Broadcast
Packets
Total number of broadcast packets transmitted out of the device wireless
interface.
Multicast Packets Total number of multicast packets transmitted out of the device wireless
interface.
Wireless Statistics – Uplink
Total Traffic Total amount of traffic received via the device wireless interface in Kbits.
Total Packets Total number of packets received via the device wireless interface.
Error Drop
Packets
Total number of packets dropped prior to sending out of the device
Ethernet interface due to RF errors (packet integrity error and other RF
related packet error).
Capacity Drop
Packets (Slave
Mode Only)
Total number of packets dropped after transmitting out of the device
Wireless interface due to capacity issues (data buffer/queue overflow or
other performance or internal packet errors).
Retransmission
Packets (Slave
Mode Only)
Total number of packets re-transmitted after transmitting out of the
device Wireless interface due to the packets not being received by the
Slave device.
Multicast /
Broadcast Traffic
Total amount of multicast and broadcast traffic received on the device
wireless interface in Kbits.
Broadcast
Packets
Total number of broadcast packets received on the device wireless
interface.
Multicast Packets Total number of multicast packets received on the device wireless
interface.
Link Quality
(Uplink)
(Slave Mode
only)
Defines the Packet Error Rate (PER) in the uplink direction by percentage.
A background color corresponds to a percentage range.
Blue is between 80 and 100%.
Green is between 50 and 80%.
Yellow is between 30 and 50%.
Red is between 0 and 30%.
Link Capacity
(Uplink)
(Slave Mode
only)
Defines the capacity of the uplink as defined by MCS. DS MCS 9
provides the greatest capacity. SS MCS 1 provides the least. Capacity of
the link is defined as the percentage throughput of the actual link as
compared to a link that was always running at DS MCS 9. A background
color corresponds to a percentage range.
Blue is between 80 and 100%.
Green is between 50 and 80%.
Yellow is between 30 and 50%.
Red is between 0 and 30%.
