Viewing client details
Use the Client Details screen to display throughput, signal strength and transmit error information
for a specific Client associated with the Mobility 5181 Access Point.
The Client Details screen is separated into four fields; Client Properties, Client Traffic, Client Signal,
and Client Errors. The Client Properties field displays basic information such as hardware address,
IP address, and associated WLAN and AP. Reference the Client Traffic field for Client RF traffic and
throughput data. Use the RF Status field to reference information on RF signal averages from the
target Client. The Error field displays RF traffic errors based on retries, dropped packets and
undecryptable packets. The Client Details screen is view-only with no user configurable data fields.
To view details specific to an individual Client:
1. Select Status and Statistics -> Client Stats from the Mobility 5181 Access Point menu tree.
2. Highlight a specific Client.
3. Select the Client Details button.
4. Refer to the Client Properties field to view Client address information.

Power Save Protocol mode. In PSP, the Client runs enough power
to check for beacons and is otherwise inactive. CAM indicates the

recommends CAM for those Clients transmitting with the AP
frequently and for periods of time of two hours.
