D-Link Unified Access System User Manual Table 31 describes the fields you see on the Neighbor APs page for the managed access point status. Table 31. Managed AP Neighbor Status Field MAC Address Location (Drop-down Menu) Radio (ex. 1-802.11g) Neighbor AP MAC SSID RSSI Status Age Description Shows the MAC address and location of the AP to which the values on the page apply. To view details about a different AP, select its MAC address from the drop-down menu. Indicates a radio interface and its configured mode. Select one of the radios to view the neighbor APs detected via an RF scan on that radio. The Ethernet MAC address of the neighbor AP network, this could be a physical radio interface or VAP MAC address. For D-Link Access Points this is always a VAP MAC address. The neighbor AP MAC address may be cross-referenced in the RF Scan status. Service Set ID of the neighbor AP network. Received signal strength indication, this is an indicator of the signal strength relative to the neighbor and may give an idea of the neighbor's distance from the managed AP. Indicates the managed status of the AP, whether this is a valid AP known to the switch or a Rogue on the network. The valid values are: • WS Managed - The neighbor AP is managed by this switch, the neighbor AP status can be referenced using its base MAC address. • Peer WS Managed - The neighbor AP is managed by another switch within the peer group. • Acknowledged Rogue - The AP is configured as a valid AP entry (local or RADIUS), it has been acknowledged and is not reported as Rogue. • Ad Hoc Rogue - The AP neighbor was detected participating in an ad hoc network. Indicates the time since this AP was last reported from an RF scan on the radio. Viewing Clients Associated with Neighbor Access Points The Neighbor Clients page shows information about wireless clients that have been discovered by the selected AP. D-Link Access Points can store information for up to 1024 wireless clients. If the information exceeds the capacity, the oldest data in the neighbor client list is overwritten. The Delete All Neighbors button clears the list. The list is repopulated as neighbors and associated clients are discovered. 136 © 2001- 2008 D-Link Corporation. All Rights Reserved.

Table 31
describes the fields you see on the
Neighbor APs
page for the managed access point
status.
Viewing Clients Associated with Neighbor Access Points
The Neighbor Clients page shows information about wireless clients that have been
discovered by the selected AP. D-Link Access Points can store information for up to 1024
wireless clients. If the information exceeds the capacity, the oldest data in the neighbor client
list is overwritten. The Delete All Neighbors button clears the list. The list is repopulated as
neighbors and associated clients are discovered.
Table 31.
Managed AP Neighbor Status
Field
Description
MAC Address -
Location
(Drop-down Menu)
Shows the MAC address and location of the AP to which the values on the
page apply. To view details about a different AP, select its MAC address
from the drop-down menu.
Radio
(ex. 1-802.11g)
Indicates a radio interface and its configured mode. Select one of the radios
to view the neighbor APs detected via an RF scan on that radio.
Neighbor AP MAC
The Ethernet MAC address of the neighbor AP network, this could be a
physical radio interface or VAP MAC address. For D-Link Access Points this
is always a VAP MAC address. The neighbor AP MAC address may be
cross-referenced in the RF Scan status.
SSID
Service Set ID of the neighbor AP network.
RSSI
Received signal strength indication, this is an indicator of the signal strength
relative to the neighbor and may give an idea of the neighbor's distance from
the managed AP.
Status
Indicates the managed status of the AP, whether this is a valid AP known to
the switch or a Rogue on the network. The valid values are:
WS Managed - The neighbor AP is managed by this switch, the
neighbor AP status can be referenced using its base MAC address.
Peer WS Managed - The neighbor AP is managed by another switch
within the peer group.
Acknowledged Rogue - The AP is configured as a valid AP entry (local
or RADIUS), it has been acknowledged and is not reported as Rogue.
Ad Hoc Rogue - The AP neighbor was detected participating in an ad
hoc network.
Age
Indicates the time since this AP was last reported from an RF scan on the
radio.
