Signal
Indicates the strength of the radio frequency (RF) signal
the client receives from the access point.
The measure used for this is an
IEEE 802.1x
value
known as
Received Signal Strength Indication
(RSSI),
and will be a value between 0 and 100.
RSSI is determined by a an IEEE 802.1x mechanism
implemented on the network interface card (
NIC
) of the
client station.
Utilization
Utilization rate for this station.
For example, if the station is “active” (transmitting and
receiving data) 90% of the time and inactive 10% of the
time, its “utilization rate” is 90%.
Receive Total
Indicates number of total packets received by the client
during the current session.
Transmit Total
Indicates number of total packets transmitted to the
client during this session.
Error Rate
Indicates the percentage of time frames are dropped
during transmission on this access point.

Viewing Session Information for Access Points
You can view session information for all access points on the network at the same time,
or set the display to show session information for a specified access point chosen from
the drop-down menu at the top of the screen.
To view information on all access points, select the
Show all access points
radio button
at the top of the page.
To view session information on a particular access point, select the
Show only this access
point
radio button and choose the access point name from the drop-down menu.
Sorting Session Information
To order (sort) the information shown in the tables by a particular indicator, click on the
column label by which you want to order things. For example, if you want to see the
table rows ordered by Utilization rate, click on the Utilization column label. The entries
will be sorted by Utilization rate.
Refreshing Session Information
You can force an update of the information displayed on the Session Monitoring page
by clicking the
Refresh
button.
This value should fall within the range of the advertised
rate set for the
IEEE 802.1x
mode in use on the access
point.
