Enhanced Site Survey Utility
The site survey utility, which is useful in determining the best placement of infrastructure devices within
a wireless network, has been modified to include the following enhancements:
• Fit Columns button—This button enables you to resize the columns on the AP scan list so that you
can view the text in each column without it being truncated.
• Time of Day field—This field in the AP scan list shows the date and time when the signal strength
of each access point was at its maximum.
• Other Information field—This field in the AP scan list contains some new values, such as WMM,
WPA, and WPA2.
• Enable Expert Mode for AP Detailed Information parameter—This check box on the Options
window causes the AP Detailed Information window to display debugging information, including a
hexadecimal debug-style dump of raw access point scan data, under the “Expert Mode (Debug
Dump” heading.
• Accumulate button—This button changes the behavior of the AP scan list. Instead of displaying only
the current AP scan list, the list includes all of the access points (based on MAC address) that have
appeared in the scan list since the Accumulate button was last clicked. After a scan line is added to
the list, it is never removed nor updated with new scan information unless the signal strength (RSSI)
of the latest scan is greater than or equal to any seen previously from that access point.
• Proximity beeper—This beeper can be used to identify areas where wireless coverage is good or
weak based on the client adapter’s proximity to access points within a particular area. The beeper
can be set to sound as the client adapter approaches or moves farther away from an access point.
• Thresholds—You can now perform the following threshold-related tasks:
–
Configure threshold values that trigger audible alerts, entries in the threshold log file, or both
–
Enable audible threshold alerts and the logging of text messages to the threshold log file when
a threshold condition occurs
–
Enter a comment in the threshold log file
–
View or delete the threshold log file
• AP scanning—You can now perform the following tasks related to AP scanning:
–
Configure the site survey utility to automatically copy the contents of the AP scan list to a log
file
–
Enable AP scan logging
–
View or delete the AP scan log
–
Save or open the AP scan list
