View AP Associated Clients
Under AP Associated Clients section, you can see a graphical representation of the clients associated
with the AP, over the last 12 hours. The AirTight device samples the number of client associations with
the AP every 15 minutes.
View AP Traffic
Under the AP traffic section, you can see a graphical representation of the AP traffic over the last 12
hours. AP Traffic section is seen only for authorized clients. AirTight device seeing the AP reports data
traffic sent and received by the AP every 15 minutes. The channel rotating AirTight device spends only a
percentage of the total time on any given channel. Hence this parameter typically underestimates the
actual traffic by a factor equal to the total number of channels scanned by the device radio. For example,
if the AirTight device scans 30 channels in all, the measured traffic would be 1/30th of the actual traffic.
However, if the traffic is bursty in nature, such straightforward scaling cannot be applied.
