Figure 23: Throughput Meter Sample Output
Histogram
This tool collects data from the radio and records it in a histogram table. See
Figure 24 on page 279.
Histogram Modes A histogram can be displayed for the following types of data, as specified by the
Mode
list:
• Valid Packet Rx Host (rh) - displays a distribution of all valid incoming
packets destined for the local AP.
Zoom and Shift
Functions
Histogram bins can be shifted and zoomed for more or less precision. See
Figure 24 on page 279
.
• zoom - changes the displayed bin width, giving you more or less information
what makes up a particular bin. For example, if 80% of the traffic is displayed
in a bin representing -75 to -80 dBm, then successively clicking on the
zoom
in
button changes the definition of each bin to be -2 dBm wide instead of -5
dBm. Thus, the 80% of traffic is displayed among more bins giving you more
information about the traffic distribution.
• shift - displays more bins from one direction while hiding bins from the
other
