To see why the DCA algorithm changed channels, click Monitor and then View All under Most
Recent Traps. The trap provides the MAC address of the radio that changed channels, the
previous channel and the new channel, the reason why the change occurred, the energy before
and after the change, the noise before and after the change, and the interference before and after
the change.
