G Retries Exceeded: This statistic reports the number of packets for which the
AP did not receive an acknowledgment within the maximum number of retries.
G Transmissions Discarded: This statistic reports the number of packets dis-
carded by the radio due to a transmission error, such as exceeding the number of
retries.
Receive Statistics
G Number of Packets Received: This statistic is divided into the number of
unicast packets received and the number of multicast packets received.
G Number of Bytes Received: This statistic is divided into the number of bytes
received in unicast packets and the number of bytes received in multicast pack-
ets.
G FCS Errors: An FCS Error occurs when a received packet fails the CRC
(Cyclic Redundancy Check) of the Frame Check Sequence (FCS).
G 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.
G Decryption Errors: Number of packets that were discarded due to a problem
during decryption, such as mismatched WEP Keys.
