Table 64: Wireless Neighborhood Information
Description
• In cluster — S hows only neighbor APs that are members of the cluster
• Not in cluster — S hows only neighbor APs that are not cluster members
• Both — S hows all neighbor APs (cluster members and non‐members)
The Cluster list at the top of the table shows IP addresses for all access points in the
cluster. (This is the same list of cluster members shown on the Cluster > Access
Points tab.)
If there is only one AP in the cluster, only a single IP address column will be
displayed here; indicating that the AP is clustered with itself.
You can click on an IP address to view more details on a particular AP.
Access points which are neighbors of one or more of the clustered APs are listed in
the left column by SSID (Network Name).
An access point which is detected as a neighbor of a cluster member can also be a
cluster member itself. Neighbors who are also cluster members are always shown
at the top of the list with a heavy bar above and include a location indicator.
The colored bars to the right of each AP in the Neighbors list shows the signal
strength for each of the neighbor APs as detected by the cluster member whose IP
address is shown at the top of the column.
The color of the bar indicates the signal strength:
• Dark Blue Bar — A dark blue bar and a high signal strength number (for example
50) indicates good signal strength detected from the Neighbor seen by the AP
whose IP address is listed above that column.
• Lighter Blue Bar — A lighter blue bar and a lower signal strength number (for
example 20 or lower) indicates medium or weak signal strength from the
Neighbor seen by the AP whose IP address is listed above that column
• White Bar — A white bar and the number 0 indicates that a neighboring AP that
was detected by one of the cluster members cannot be detected by the AP
whose IP address if listed above that column.
• Light Gray Bar — A light gray bar and no signal strength number indicates a
Neighbor that is detected by other cluster members but not by the AP whose
IP address is listed above that column.
• Dark Gray Bar — A dark gray bar and no signal strength number indicates this is
the AP whose IP address is listed above that column (since it is not applicable
to show how well the AP can detect itself).
