7.5.1 Viewing MU Details

Use the

MU Details

screen to display throughput, signal strength and transmit error information for

a specific MU associated with the AP-5131.

The MU Details screen is separated into four fields; MU Properties, MU Traffic, MU Signal, and MU
Errors
. The

MU Properties

field displays basic information such as hardware address, IP address,

and associated WLAN and AP. Reference the

MU Traffic

field for MU RF traffic and throughput data.

Use the

RF Status

field to reference information on RF signal averages from the target MU. The

Error

field displays RF traffic errors based on retries, dropped packets and undecryptable packets. The MU
Details screen is view-only with no user configurable data fields.
