How Can We Help?
Objective
The Traffic Statistics page helps to view real-time information about the traffic statistics of data transmitted and received by the access point on the Ethernet interface, the virtual access points (VAP), and on any Wireless Distribution System (WDS) radio interface. The information provided is since the last reboot of WAP. The traffic statistics are used to troubleshoot the network and find the interfaces that transmit and receive data and the interfaces that cause errors during transmission or reception.
This article provides information about the traffic statistics on the WAP121 and WAP321 access points.
Applicable Devices
• WAP121
• WAP321
Software Version
• 1.0.3.4
