Release Notes

Parameter Description
Total Radio Resets
Total number of times the radio reset.
Resets Beacon Fail
Number of times the radio reset due to beacon failure.
BB check positives
Number of times the radio checked for a baseband hang condition
Resets BeacQ Stuck
An AP’s radio typically sends a beacon every 100 milliseconds. If
beacons are not sent at a regular interval or the radio experiences
excessive noise, the beacon queue will reset. This parameter indicates
the number of queue resets.
Resets Fatal Intr
Number of time the radio was reset because the AP hardware was
unresponsive.
Resets RX Overrun
The number of radio resets due to Receive FIFO overruns.
Resets RF Gain
Number of radio resets due to gain changes.
Resets MTU Change
Number of times the radio reset due to a change in the Maximum
Transmission Unit (MTU) value.
Resets TX Timeouts
Number of radio resets due to transmission timeouts (the radio doesn’t
transmit a signal within the required time frame.)
POE-Related Resets
If the radio power profile drops, an AP may not be able to support three
transmit chains, and may drop to two chains only. This parameter
displays the number of resets due to this type of power change.
External Reset
Number of times the AP has been reset because it was unplugged or
its reset button was pressed.
PCI Fatal Intr Reset
Radio reset due to PCI fatal interrupt received from radio chip.
Chaimask Reset
Radio reset when new chain mask is configured.
TX stat Reset
Radio reset caused by inconsistent state of hardware transmit queue.
TX Power Changes
Number of times the radio’s transmission power changed.
Channel Changes
Number of times the radio’s channel changed.
Radio Band Changes
Number of time the radio’s band changed.
Current Noise Floor
The residual background noise detected by an AP.
NOTE: Noise seen by an AP is reported as -dBm. Therefore, a noise
floor of -100 dBm is smaller (lower) than a noise floor of -50 dBm. For
most environments, the noise floor should be no greater than -80 dBm.
Anything larger may indicate an interference problem which is
drowning out good signals (data) in background noise.
Dummy NF pkts on home chan-
nel
Number of noise floor readings on the home channel.
Dummy NF pkts on scan chan-
nel
Number of noise floor readings on the scan channel.
