Introduction
The AP keeps statistics of its transactions during operation. These statistics indicate 
traffic, transmission success, and the existence of other radio network devices. 
Clear statistics as needed.
Wireless Clients
Wireless Client statistics provide information on wireless clients associated with 
an AP. The statistics include information on data sent and received, activity and 
association. A wireless client shows only in the Home/Foreign Agent Table screens 
when the wireless client has roamed to another AP on a different subnet. Once a 
wireless client has roamed, the wireless client IP Address displays on the Home 
Agent Table
 screen of the wireless client’s home AP with the IP Address of the 
Foreign Agent to tell the “home” AP where to forward packets. 
The wireless client IP Address is also shown in the Foreign Agent Table and Regular 
screens of the new “foreign” AP to tell the new AP where to expect packets from 
for newly associated wireless clients. The AP Regular screen shows the wireless 
clients associated locally on the same subnet.
Select Wireless Client from the Main Menu.
Use the Tab or arrow keys to highlight the desired screen. 
Press Enter to display the screen you selected.
Select Regular at the Wireless Clients prompt.
The display shows the currently associated wireless clients listed by MAC address.
