Configuration
•
Multiple Retries: This statistic reports the number of packets that required more
than one retry before the AP received an acknowledgment.
•
Retries Exceeded: This statistic reports the number of packets for which the AP
did not receive an acknowledgment within the maximum number of retries.
•
Transmissions Discarded: This statistic reports the number of packets discarded
by the radio due to a transmission error, such as exceeding the number of retries.
Receive Statistics
•
Unicast Packets: Number of unicast packets received. Unicast packets are des-
tined for a single network node.
•
Unicast Bytes: Number of bytes in received unicast packets.
Multicast Packets: Number of multicast packets received. Multicast packets are
•
destined for more than one network node (this includes broadcast packets).
•
Multicast Bytes: Number of bytes in received multicast packets.
•
FCS Errors: An FCS Error occurs when a received packet fails the CRC (Cyclic
Redundancy Check) of the Frame Check Sequence (FCS).
•
No Buffers: An Access Point's radio temporarily stores the packets it receives over
the wireless medium before forwarding them to the Ethernet network. The radio
stores these packets in its buffer memory, which only has a limited amount of
space available. A No Buffers error occurs when the radio's buffer memory is full
and the radio cannot receive additional packets from the wireless medium. This
may result in lost data or delayed transmissions.
•
Decryption Errors: Number of packets that were discarded due to a problem dur-
ing decryption, such as mismatched WEP Keys.
Ethernet Statistics
The Ethernet Statistics provide information concerning the number of packets sent
and received by an Access Point over the Ethernet network. The following statistics
appear under the Ethernet Statistics heading:
•
Packets Received: Number of packets the Access Point has received from the
Ethernet network.
•
Bytes Received: Number of bytes contained in the packets received from the
Ethernet network.
•
Packets Sent: Number of packets the Access Point has sent to the Ethernet
network.
Bytes Sent: Number of bytes contained in the packets sent to the Ethernet
•
network.
