Signal—The strength of the radio frequency (RF) signal the WLAN client receives from 
the access point. The measure is known as Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI), 
and is a value between 0 and 100.
Receive Total—The number of total packets received by the WLAN client during the 
current session.
Transmit Total—The number of total packets transmitted to the WLAN client during 
this session.
Error Rate—The percentage of time frames are dropped during transmission on this 
access point.
To sort the information shown in the tables by a particular indicator, click the column label you 
want to sort by. For example, if you want to see the table rows ordered by signal strength, click 
the Signal column label.
Channel Management
The Channel Management page shows the current and planned channel assignments for WAP 
devices in a Single Point Setup cluster.
When channel management is enabled, the AP automatically assigns radio channels used by 
WAP devices in a Single Point Setup cluster. Automatic channel assignment reduces mutual 
interference (or interference with other WAP devices outside of its cluster) and maximizes Wi-
Fi bandwidth to help maintain efficient communication over the wireless network.
The automatic channel assignment feature is disabled by default. The state of channel 
management (enabled or disabled) is propagated to the other devices in the Single Point Setup 
cluster.
At a specified interval, the channel manager (that is, the device that provided the configuration 
to the cluster) maps all clustered WAP devices to different channels and measures interference 
levels of the cluster members. If significant channel interference is detected, the channel 
manager automatically reassigns some or all of the devices to new channels per an efficiency 
algorithm (or automated channel plan). If the channel manager determines that a change is 
necessary, then the reassignment information is sent to all members of the cluster. A syslog 
message is generated as well indicating the sender device and the new and old channel 
assignments.
