Assigning Badges

Badges display real-time statistics that can be configured for each AP. If a metric is not assigned to a badge position, it is not shown on the user interface. By default, all the badges are assigned to an AP. The following metrics can be assigned to badges:
  • RSS. Filter range: [-100, -10] dBm
  • SNR. Filter range: [0, 50] dB
  • TX Power. Filter range: [0, 30] dBm
  • Radio Status
    • Green. Radio is on and providing service.
    • Red. Radio is on but not providing service.
    • Blue. Radio is off.
  • Channel. Filter range: [1, 200]
  • Clients. Filter range: [0, 200]
  • Throughput.
    • Select min/max for the filter range. Available ranges:
      • [0, 1000] Kbps
      • [1, 50] Mbps
      • [50, 1000] Mbps
      • [1, 10] Gbps
    • Delta throughput since last statistics collection.
  • Retries:
    • Filter range: [0, 100] %
    • Delta retries since last stats collection
  • Channel Width. Depending on frequency band, set in segments 20MHz wide: 20, 40, 80 MHz, etc.
