Using the Counters tabs, you can view a wide range of
performance data at both sides of the link. For RB units, you
can monitor the received signal strength through the RSSI
(Received Signal Strength Indication) bar indicator at the
bottom of the window. This RSSI bar can be used to optimize
antenna alignment and improve link quality.
Additional performance counters displayed in this window
include the following. To obtain a graph that displays the
counter values, select a counter and drag it to the
icon.
♦ Tx Counters
 Tx Fragments: The number of transmitted
frames. The count includes data, control,
management frames and the number of
retransmissions of data frames (for example, if
the same data frame is retransmitted ten times
then the count will increase ten times).
 Tx Frames: The number of frames successfully
transmitted to the wireless media. The count
includes the first transmission of data frames
(without retransmissions), and the number of
control and management frames.
 Multicast Tx Frames: The number of
successfully transmitted multicast frames.
 Retry Count: The number of frames that were
successfully transmitted after one of more
retransmissions.
 Multiple Retry: This counter is incremented
when a packet is successfully transmitted after
more than one retransmission.
