Channel Metrics
The channel metrics graph displays channel quality, availability, and utilization metrics as seen by a spectrum
monitor or hybrid IAP. You can view the channel utilization data based on 2 GHz and 5 GHz radio channels. The
percentage of each channel that is currently being used by Wi-Fi devices, and the percentage of each channel
being used by non-Wi-Fi devices and 802.11 adjacent channel interference (ACI). This chart shows the channel
availability, the percentage of each channel that is available for use, and the current relative quality of selected
channels in the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz radio bands. While spectrum monitors can display data for all channels in
their selected band, hybrid IAPs display data for a single monitored channel.
Aruba Instant 6.5.0.0-4.3.0.0 | User Guide
shows the information that you can view in the Channel Details graph.
Description
An 802.11a or 802.11g radio channel.
Current relative quality of the channel.
The percentage of the channel being used.
The percentage of the channel currently being used by Wi-Fi devices.
Device type.
The percentage of the channel currently being used by non-Wi-Fi devices.
Number of valid IAPs identified on the radio channel.
Number of invalid or rogue IAPs identified on the radio channel.
Percentage of the channel currently in use.
Signal strength of the IAP that has the maximum signal strength on a channel.
Signal strength of the non-Wi-Fi device that has the highest signal strength.
The ratio of signal strength to the combined levels of interference and noise on that
channel. This value is calculated by determining the maximum noise-floor and
interference-signal levels, and then calculating how strong the desired signal is
above this maximum.
