Monitoring Associated Client Information 139
7 Monitoring Status and Statistics
Status—Shows status information about wireless clients that are associated with APs
managed by the switch and contains the following information:
- Summary—Shows basic information about associated clients.
- Detail—Shows more detailed information about associated clients, such as which
VLAN the client is assigned to and how long the client has been inactive.
- Neighbor APs—Shows the managed APs that are within range of the wireless clients,
which can help you determine the managed AP an associated client might use for
roaming.
SSID Status—Shows the SSID and client MAC address of all clients connected to
specific networks.
VAP Status—Shows the clients associated with a specific VAP on a D-Link Access Point
Statistics—Shows statistics about wireless clients that are associated with APs managed
by the switch and contains the following information:
- Association Summary—Shows the statistics for a wireless client while it is associated
with a single AP.
- Session Summary—If a wireless client roams among different managed APs, the
switch can track the statistics for the entire session.
- Association Detail—Shows additional information about packets the associated client
transmits and receives during association with a single managed AP.
- Session Detail—Shows additional information about packets the associated client
transmits and receives during a session, which can include statistics for one or more
managed AP associations if the client has roamed.
Since the associated client database supports roaming across APs, an entry is not removed
when a client disassociates from a specific AP. After a client has disassociated the entry is
deleted after the client times out. You configure the timeout value in the Client Roam Timeout
field on the Administration > Advanced Configuration > Global page. The timeout value
corresponds to the time allowed for roaming to another managed AP.
