Section 3: Configuring the Access Point
LAPAC1750PRO Access Point Software User Manual
Rate
The speed at which this access point is transferring data to
the specified client
The data transmission rate is measured in megabits per
second (Mbps)
This value should fall within the range of the advertised
rate set for the mode in use on the access point For
example, 6 to 54 Mbps for 802 11a
Signal
Indicates the strength of the radio frequency (RF) signal
the client receives from the access point
The measure used for this is a value known as Received
Signal Strength Indication (RSSI), and will be a value
between 0 and 100
RSSI is determined by a mechanism implemented on the
network interface card (NIC) of the client station
Rx Total
Indicates number of total packets received from the client
during the current session
Tx 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
Sorting Session Information
To sort the information shown in the tables by a particular indicator, click the
column label by which you want to order things For example, if you want to
see the table rows ordered by signal strength, click the Signal column label
The entries will be sorted by signal strength
Channel Management
When Channel Management is enabled, the access point automatically
assigns radio channels used by clustered access points The automatic
channel assignment reduces mutual interference (or interference with other
access points outside of its cluster) and maximizes Wi-Fi bandwidth to help
maintain the efficiency of communication over the wireless network
You must start channel management to get automatic channel assignments;
it is disabled by default on a new AP
At a specified interval, the Channel Manager maps APs to channel use and
measures interference levels in the cluster If significant channel interference
is detected, the Channel Manager automatically re-assigns some or all of
the APs to new channels per an efficiency algorithm (or automated channel
plan) If the Channel Manager determines that a change is necessary, that
information is sent to all members of the cluster and a syslog message is
generated indicating the sender AP, new and old channel assignments
The Channel Management page shows previous, current, and planned
channel assignments for clustered access points By default, automatic
channel assignment is disabled You can start channel management to
optimize channel usage across the cluster on a scheduled interval
To configure and view the channel assignments for the cluster members, click
the
Configuration > Cluster > Channel Management
tab
