Discovering Clients

6. DISCOVERING CLIENTS
While the tester is on, it monitors each channel for client
traffic to discover client devices. To see these clients, tap the
Clients row on the Home Screen.
NOTES: The tester is only able to update the client’s
information when the client transmits data at the same time
that the tester is monitoring the channel that the client uses.
To collect client information more quickly, go to Settings
> 802.11 Settings, and enable only one band, which
decreases the number of monitored channels.
The Client List Screen
The Clients list screen provides an overview of the Wi-Fi
clients discovered in your environment. It shows the
following information for each of the clients:
Clients (#): The numeric value in parentheses indicates
the number of active clients discovered.
Sort (Option Field): This field shows the sort option that
is currently applied. In Figure 15, the sort option applied
is MAC Ad
dress.
