Configuring the Radio Network 4 - 9
The time is displayed in milliseconds. Each packet contains the time it
was sent. When a packet is received by the source, the time difference
indicates the round trip time. Longer times indicate that the processor’s
or the radio’s bandwidth is full.
The signal strength numbers indicate the strength of the radio signal at
the time the packets were received at each end. Signal strength is
expressed as a percentage of full power.
Running A Unicast Test (Unicast)
The unicast option can be used to test the path between the Aironet
Wireless Client and any other Aironet node in the wired or radio net-
work. The packets are sent with the same error recovery as normal user
data so round trip times indicate the infrastructure throughput and con-
gestion.
If the path to the target node was over the radio, a total number of radio
retries necessary to complete the test is also displayed. If the total num-
ber of retries is large, there may be problems with the link. Look for
sources of interference.
