418 Monitoring the Network
To find an AP on the floor
1
Click on the Monitor option in the main WMS tool bar.
2
Expand the Site list tree in the Organizer panel and select the access point you want to view.
3
WMS automatically opens the Floor View panel, displaying a floor map with the selected access point
highlighted.
4
Select a statistic from the Task panel to generate a topographical visualization of that data. (If you choose
the RF Interference, High Utilization, or Coverage Hole options and re-transmit rates within the depicted
area do not exceed 10% of total network bytes, WMS displays a message dialog instead of generating a
visualization.)
On-Demand Statistics Monitoring
Each of the Monitor dashboard views offers a way to see on-demand statistics. For example, selecting a session from the
Client Monitor panel launches the current statistics for that session.
Viewing Performance Data
WLAN Management Software opens a separate window for the statistics panel, and you can open multiple statistics
panels. You can keep the windows separate, or group multiple statistic windows together by dragging them across the
windows.
