A MAC address is a hardware address that uniquely
identifies each node of a network.
Indicates the amount of time this station has
remained inactive.
A station is considered to be idle when it is not
receiving or transmitting data.
The speed at which this access point is transferring
data to the specified client.
The data transmission rate is measured in megabits
per second (Mbps).
This value should fall within the range of the
advertised rate set for the mode in use on the access
point. For example, 6 to 54 Mbps for 802. 1 1a.
Strength of the radio frequency (RF) signal the client
receives from the access point.
The measure used for this is a value known as
Received Signal Strength Indication
(RSSI), and will be a value between 0 and 100.
RSSI is determined by a mechanism implemented on
the network interface card (NIC) of the client station.
Number of total packets received by the client during
the current session.
Number of total packets transmitted to the client
during this session.
Percentage of time frames are dropped during
