1.2.20 Statistical Displays

The access point can display robust transmit and receive statistics for the WAN and LAN ports.
WLAN stats can be displayed collectively and individually for enabled WLANs. Transmit and receive
statistics are available for the access point's 802.11a/n and 802.11b/g/n radios. An advanced radio
statistics page is also available to display retry histograms for specific data packet retry information.
Associated MU stats can be displayed collectively and individually for specific MUs. An echo (ping)
test is also available to ping specific MUs to assess association strength. Finally, the access point
can detect and display the properties of other APs detected within its radio coverage area. The type
of AP detected can be displayed as well as the properties of individual APs.
For detailed information on available access point statistical displays and the values they represent,
see Monitoring Statistics on page 7-1.

1.2.21 Transmit Power Control

The access point has a configurable power level for each radio. This enables the network
administrator to define the antenna's transmission power level in respect to the access point's
placement or network requirements as defined in the site survey.
For detailed information on setting the radio transmit power level, see Configuring the 802.11a/n or
802.11b/g/n Radio on page 5-59.

1.2.22 Advanced Event Logging Capability

The access point periodically logs system events. Logging events is useful in assessing the
throughput and performance of the access point or troubleshooting problems on the access point
managed Local Area Network (LAN).
For detailed information on access point events, see Logging Configuration on page 4-48.

1.2.23 Configuration File Import/Export Functionality

Configuration settings for an access point can be downloaded from the current configuration of
another access point. This affords the administrator the ability to save the current configuration
before making significant changes or restoring a default configuration. A configuration file from a
dual radio AP-7131N-FGR can be imported to another dual radio model AP-7131N-FGR.
For detailed information on importing or exporting configuration files, see Importing/Exporting
Configurations on page 4-50.
