you want to monitor.
The associated stations are displayed, along with information about packet traffic
transmitted and received for each station.
23.4.1 Link Integrity Monitoring
The 9160 Wireless Gateway provides link integrity monitoring to continually verify
its connection to each associated client (even when there is no data exchange occur-
ring). To do this, the AP sends data packets to clients every few seconds when no
other traffic is passing. This allows the access point to detect when a client goes out
of range, even during periods when no normal traffic is exchanged.The client
connection drops off the list of associated clients within 300 seconds of a client dis-
appearing, even if they do not disassociate (but went out of range).
