Disconnecting a Spectrum Device
A spectrum monitor or hybrid AP can send spectrum analysis data to only one client at a time. When you are
done viewing data for a spectrum device, you should release your client’s subscription to that spectrum device and
allow other clients to view data from that device. A spectrum monitor or hybrid AP will automatically disconnect
from your client when you close the browser window you used to connect the spectrum device your client.
To disconnect a spectrum monitor:
1. Navigate to the Monitoring>Spectrum Analysis window.
2. Click the Spectrum Monitors tab.
3. Each table entry in the Currently Connected table includes a Disconnect link to release the client’s
connection to that spectrum monitor. Identify the table entry for the spectrum monitor you want to release
then click Disconnect.
4. A popup window asks you to confirm that you want to disconnect the spectrum monitor from the spectrum
analysis client. Click OK. The spectrum monitor will disconnect from the client and the device’s entry will be
removed from the Currently Connected table.
When you disconnect a spectrum monitor from your client, the AP will continue to operate as a spectrum
monitor until you return it to AP mode by removing the local spectrum override, or by changing the mode
parameter in the AP’s 802.11a or 802.11g radio profile from spectrum-mode to AP-mode
