11.7 View Statistics in Graphic Form

In the screens described by the previous sections of this chapter, the statistics for the WAN, LAN, WLAN,
Access Ports, and mobile units are presented in a tabular format. However, administrators often want to see
the trends of the activity on the LAN. To aid with that project, the WS 2000 Wireless Switch enables the
administrator to view the statics in a graphical format that is constantly updated.
The unique 48-bit, hard-coded Media Access Control address, known as the devices
station identifier. This value is hard coded at the factory by the manufacturer and
cannot be changed.
Displays the WLAN name each wireless bridge is interoperating with.
The AP on which connection is made to the Client bridge.
The VLAN of the mesh connection
The total throughput in Megabits per second (Mbps) for each associated bridge.
The Average Bit Speed (ABS) in Megabits per second (Mbps) for each associated
bridge.
Displays the percentage of the total packets for the Client bridge that are non-uni-
cast packets. Non-unicast packets include broadcast and multicast packets.
Displays the average number of retries per packet. A high number in this field could
indicate possible network or hardware problems.
Clicking Detail will launch a new window with detailed statistics about the
selected Client bridge.
The Client Bridge Details screen is separated into four sections, Client Bridge Prop-
erties, Client Bridge Traffic, Client Bridge Signal, and Client Bridge Errors. The MU
Properties section displays basic information such as hardware address, IP address,
and associated WLAN and AP. The MU Traffic section displays statistics on RF traffic
and throughput. The RF Status section displays information on RF signal averages
from the MU. The Error section displays RF traffic errors based on retries, dropped
packets and undecryptable packets.
