Parameter Description
Detect Frame Rate
Anomalies
Enable or disables detection of frame rate anomalies. This feature is
disabled by default.
Bandwidth Rate High
Watermark
If bandwidth in an AP exceeds this value, a bandwidth exceeded condition
exists. The value represents the percentage of maximum for a given
radio. (For 802.11b, the maximum bandwidth is 7 Mbps. For 802.11 a and
g, the maximum is 30 Mbps.) The recommended value is 85%.
Bandwidth Rate Low
Watermark
After a bandwidth exceeded condition exists, the condition persists until
bandwidth drops below this value. The recommended value is 70%.
Frame Error Rate High
Watermark
If the frame error rate (as a percentage of total frames in an AP) exceeds
this value, a frame error rate exceeded condition exists. The
recommended value is 16%.
Frame Error Rate Low
Watermark
After a frame error rate exceeded condition exists, the condition persists
until the frame error rate drops below this value. The recommended
value is 8%.
Frame Fragmentation Rate
High Watermark
If the frame fragmentation rate (as a percentage of total frames in an
AP) exceeds this value, a frame fragmentation rate exceeded condition
exists. The recommended value is 16%.
Frame Fragmentation Rate
Low Watermark
After a frame fragmentation rate exceeded condition exists, the
condition persists until the frame fragmentation rate drops below this
value. The recommended value is 8%
Frame Low Speed Rate High
Watermark
If the rate of low-speed frames (as a percentage of total frames in an AP)
exceeds this value, a low-speed rate exceeded condition exists. This
could indicate a coverage hole. The recommended value is 16%.
Frame Low Speed Rate Low
Watermark
After a low-speed rate exceeded condition exists, the condition persists
until the percentage of low-speed frames drops below this value. The
recommended value is 8%.
Frame Non Unicast Rate
High Watermark
If the non-unicast rate (as a percentage of total frames in an AP) exceeds
this value, a non-unicast rate exceeded condition exists. This value
depends upon the applications used on the network.
Frame Non Unicast Rate Low
Watermark
After a non-unicast rate exceeded condition exists, the condition persists
until the non-unicast rate drops below this value.
