alone it is not possible to determine which AP-SU radio link/links is/are having a problem. A high value
for this measurement simply means that at least one radio link supported by that AP has an upstream
problem. The Aggregate Uplink Cell Error Rate measurement is a more sensitive indicator of upstream
radio problems than the Aggregate Downlink Cell Error Rate measurement.

7.1.14 MAC type
MAC type displays what type of MAC is loaded on the unit: either AP or SU.
7.1.15 Unit MAC address
Unit MAC address displays the unit’s physical MAC address which is a 12 digit hexadecimal number.
7.1.16 Channel
Channel identifies which channel and polarization the unit is set to.
