Site Survey Passive Mode Statistics (continued)
Description
In passive mode, the site survey tool monitors transmitted
network traffic, and the data rate reflects the rate at which the
packets are being transmitted.
The Link Speed histogram provides a visual interpretation of the
current rate at which your client adapter is transmitting packets.
Differences in link speed are indicated by the following colors:
green (fastest), yellow (middle of the range), and red (slowest).
Value:
The client adapter's ability to communicate with the access point.
Value:
Note
The difference between the signal strength and the noise level.
The higher the value, the better the client adapter's ability to
communicate with the access point.
Range: 0 to 90 dB
Note
The access point to which your client adapter is associated. It is
shown only if the client adapter is in infrastructure mode, the
access point was configured with a name, and Aironet Extensions
are enabled (on access points running Cisco IOS Release
12.2(4)JA or greater).
The IP address of the access point to which your client adapter is
associated. It is shown only if the client adapter is in
infrastructure mode, the access point was configured with an IP
address, and Aironet Extensions are enabled (on access points
running Cisco IOS Release 12.2(4)JA or greater).
