Chapter 3 Testing
Assessing WiFi performance throughout a site
Interpreting Site Assessment results
While the Site Assessment test is in progress, results for any completed profile test
can be viewed by touching the completed profile in the Test Progress pane.
When a profile name is selected, the Site Assessment Results screen appears.
This screen displays results for both the AP-to-Station direction and Station-to-AP
direction. The menu has several result views:
•
Summary – shows a summary of the throughput and throughput margin
tests for the selected profile. This view includes the TrueMargin™ result to
help understand the resiliency of the WiFi link under test.
•
Details – shows the detailed statistics for the selected test profile in tabular
form.
•
Histograms – provides histograms of per-packet PHY rate and retransmis-
sion retries.
•
Trend Graphs – time correlated view of critical test measurements and
results.
•
Spectral – snapshots for the channel used in the test profile. Shown at both
AP and Station.
