The Connection field displays the following:

Lists the user role set for the client as it became a controller, service platform or Access Point managed
device.

Client Identity

Displays the unique vendor identity of the listed device as it appears to its adopting controller or service
platform.

Client Identity
Precedence

Lists the numeric precedence this client uses in establishing its identity amongst its peers.

Username

Displays the unique name of the administrator or operator managing the client’s connected Access
Point.

Authentication

Lists the authentication scheme applied to the client for interoperation with its connected Access Point
radio.

Encryption

Lists the encryption scheme applied to the client for interoperation with its connected Access Point
radio.

Captive Portal Auth.

Displays whether captive portal authentication is enabled. When enabled, a restrictive set of access
permissions may be in effect.

Idle Time

Displays the time for which the wireless client remained idle.

Last Active

Displays the time in seconds the wireless client was last interoperating with its connected Access Point.

Last Association

Session Time

Displays the duration for which a session can be maintained by the wireless client without it being
dis-associated from the Access Point.

SM Power Save Mode

Displays whether this feature is enabled on the wireless client. The spatial multiplexing (SM) power save
mode allows an 802.11n client to power down all but one of its radios. This power save mode has two
sub modes of operation: static operation and dynamic operation.

Power Save Mode

Displays whether this feature is enabled or not. To prolong battery life, the 802.11 standard defines an
optional Power Save Mode, which is available on most 80211 clients. End users can simply turn it on or
off via the card driver or configuration tool. With power save off, the 802.11 network card is generally in
receive mode listening for packets and occasionally in transmit mode when sending packets. These
modes require the 802.11 NIC to keep most circuits powered-up and ready for operation.

WMM Support

Displays whether WMM is enabled or not in order to provide data packet type prioritization between the
Access Point and connected client.

40 MHz Capable

Displays whether the wireless client has 802.11n channels operating at 40 MHz.

Max Physical Rate

Displays the maximum data rate at the physical layer.

Max User Rate

Displays the maximum permitted user data rate.

MC2UC Streams

Lists the number or multicast to unicast data streams detected.
