3.1.2.4. NUMBER OF CLIENTS
A client is any
IEEE
802.11b device that has associated with a BreadCrumb device’s access point.
Laptops, handheld computers, cameras, VOIP + Wi-Fi phones, etc. are examples of client devices.
Tip:
The amount of information displayed for each BreadCrumb device can be changed by right-
clicking on a BreadCrumb device and choosing Show More Detail or Show Less Detail. The detail
level for the entire network can be changed via the View Menu at the top of the window. The
above figure shows BCAdmin’s the default level of detail.
3.1.3 ANATOMY OF THE CLIENT BOX
Client devices are represented in the Topology Area by a blue box containing the client device’s MAC
address, as pictured below.
Figure 5. Client Device's MAC Address
3.1.3.1. CLIENT MAC ADDRESS/NICKNAME
The MAC address or administrator-set nickname of the client device.
Tip:
An administrator can set nicknames for each client device. These nicknames are then displayed in
the Topology Area instead of the MAC address. To set a nickname, right-click on the client device
and choose Set Client Nickname.
3.2 ANATOMY OF A CONNECTION LINE
If your BCWN has more than one BreadCrumb device, your Topology Area probably includes several lines
connecting BreadCrumb boxes to clients and to one another. The color, style, and direction of motion (if any) of a
line indicates its channel, speed, and direction as follows:
