Software User Manual 12/10/09 D-Link Unified Access System Field Discovery Reason Age Table 288: Neighbor AP Clients Description Indicates one or more discovery methods for the neighbor client. One or more of the following values may be displayed: • RF Scan Discovered: The client was reported from an RF scan on the radio. Note that client stations are difficult to detect via RF scan, the other methods are more common for client neighbor detection. • Probe Request: The managed AP received a probe request from the client. • Associated to Managed AP: This neighbor client is associated to another managed AP. • Associated to this AP: The client is associated to this managed AP on the displayed radio. • Associated to Peer AP: The client is associated to an AP managed by a peer switch. • Ad Hoc Rogue: The client was detected as part of an Ad Hoc network. Indicates the time since this client was last reported from an RF scan on the radio. Viewing Managed Access Point VAPs There are 16 virtual access points (VAPs) available on each radio of an AP. For each radio of an access point managed by the switch, you can view a summary of the VAP configuration and the number of wireless clients associated with a particular VAP. Use the menu above the table to select the AP with the VAP information to view. The AP is identified by its MAC address and location. If the AP has two radios, select a radio to view details about VAPs on that radio. The radio is identified by its number and configured mode. If the radio is disabled, the radio mode will be displayed as Off. Table 289 describes the fields you see on the VAPs page for the managed access point status. Table 289: Managed Access Point VAP Status Field VAP ID VAP Mode BSSID SSID Client Associations Client Authentications Description The integer ID used to identify the VAP (0-7), this is used to uniquely identify the VAP for configuration via CLI/SNMP. Indicates whether or not the VAP is enabled or disabled. VAPs are always configured, but are only sending beacons and accepting clients when they are Enabled. The Ethernet address of the VAP. Indicates the network assigned to the VAP. The network for each VAP is configured within the AP profile and the SSID is based on the network configuration. Indicates the total number of clients currently associated to the VAP. Indicates the total number of clients currently authenticated with the VAP. Viewing Distributed Tunneling Information The AP-AP tunneling mode is used to support L3 roaming for wireless clients without forwarding any data traffic to the wireless switch. In the AP-AP tunneling mode, when a client first associates with an AP in the wireless system, the AP forwards the wireless client's data using VLAN forwarding mode. The AP the client initially associates with is called the Home AP. The AP the client roams to is called the Association AP. Document 34CSFP6XXUWS-SWUM100-D7 Monitoring Status and Statistics Page 469
