The Clients tab displays a
list of clients in your network. Use this information to understand client status, access roles,
and associated APs. From the client list, you can add clients to and remove clients from access lists.
From the client Actions
button, you can delete and disassociate clients, re-authenticate clients, and move clients into
and out of groups.
Highlights on the Clients List:
IP Address — The IP Address field displays
the IPv4 address and indicates when there is up to three IPv6 addresses. Hover over the IP
Address field to view the full IPv6 address. You also have the option to display the IPv6
addresses in a separate field.
RSS (dBm) — Received Signal Strength
Indicator is the estimated power level that a client device is receiving from the associated
access point.
Spatial Stream — Number of MIMO streams
supported by each client. Use this information to inform your decisions about hardware
purchases and decisions about network configuration.
Capabilities — Client protocol capabilities.
Indicates which protocol capabilities the client supports. Valid values are:
DL Lost Retries Packets —
Indicates the number of packets lost between the AP and the client (downlink). This value
indicates the health of the RF environment. Possible reasons for packet transmission failure
are channel noise or co-channel interference.
DL Lost Retries Bytes —
Indicates the number of bytes lost in packet transmission between the AP and its clients
(downlink). This value indicates the health of the RF environment. Possible reasons for packet
transmission failure are channel noise or co-channel interference.
Channel — Indicates the channel
to which the client is connected. Possible values include a specific channel number or a
channel number, plus offset, and channel width.
For example, 44+1/40 represents channel 44, +1
offset of the primary channel, / 40 MHz channel width.
Use Query Builder to create reports using the available data points.
