Section 9 - Clustering Multiple APs
Field Description
Neighbours Access points which are neighbours of one or more of the clustered APs are listed in the left
column by SSID (Network Name).
An access point which is detected as a neighbour of a cluster member can also be a cluster
member itself. Neighbours who are also cluster members are always shown at the top of the
list with a heavy bar above and include a location indicator.
The coloured bars to the right of each AP in the Neighbours list shows the signal strength for
each of the neighbour APs as detected by the cluster member whose IP address is shown at
the top of the column.
The color of the bar indicates the signal strength:
•) Dark Blue Bar — A dark blue bar and a high signal strength number (for example 50)
indicates good signal strength detected from the Neighbour seen by the AP whose IP
address is listed above that column.
•) Lighter Blue Bar — A lighter blue bar and a lower signal strength number (for example
20 or lower) indicates medium or weak signal strength from the Neighbour seen by
the AP whose IP address is listed above that column
•) White Bar — A white bar and the number 0 indicates that a neighbouring AP that
was detected by one of the cluster members cannot be detected by the AP whose IP
address if listed above that column.
•) Light Gray Bar — A light gray bar and no signal strength number indicates a
Neighbour that is detected by other cluster members but not by the AP whose IP
address is listed above that column.
•) Dark Gray Bar — A dark gray bar and no signal strength number indicates this is the
AP whose IP address is listed above that column (since it is not applicable to show
how well the AP can detect itself).

The following table explains the details shown about the selected AP.
Field Description
SSID The Service Set Identier (SSID) for the access point.
The SSID is an alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters that uniquely identies a wireless
local area network. It is also referred to as the Network Name.
A Guest network and an Internal network running on the same access point must always
have two different network names.
MAC Address Shows the MAC address of the neighbouring access point.
A MAC address is a hardware address that uniquely identies each node of a network.
Channel Shows the channel on which the access point is currently broadcasting.
The Channel denes the portion of the radio spectrum that the radio uses for transmitting
and receiving.
Rate Shows the rate (in megabits per second) at which this access point is currently transmitting.
The current rate will always be one of the rates shown in Supported Rates.
Signal Indicates the strength of the radio signal emitting from this access point as measured in
decibels (Db).
