status of your network, while the navigation pane on the left side of the page allows you to navigate through the

Section Description
Clients This chart is a graphical summary of the number of users on the network during a period of
time. The time can be adjusted. Select Show All to display a list of data series that this
graph can display, such as the user count by SSID.
Clear the Max Clients or Avg Clients check box to change the display of the graph. The
graph displays the maximum number of users by default. To view historical graphs in a new
window, select the three-bar icon on the upper right of the chart.
Client Health This graph shows the percentage of clients with good, fair, and poor health. To view the new
graph from the Home page, select Client Health from the Clients menu.
The client health metric displayed in these charts is the efficiency at which that AP transmits
downstream traffic to a particular client. This value is determined by comparing the amount
of time the AP spends transmitting call data to a client to the amount of time that would be
required under ideal conditions, that is, at the maximum Rx rate supported by client, with no
data retries.
Usage This adjustable chart displays bandwidth data over time. To remove bandwidth in or out
from the graphical display, clear the check box for Avg Bits Per Second In or Out.
To display details for specific devices, select Show All and select the devices to be included
in the graphical bandwidth summary chart. To view historical graphs in a new window, select
the three-bar icon on the upper right of the chart.
