Table 28 Instant Access Point View - RF Trends Graphs and Monitoring Procedures (Continued) Graph Name Description Monitoring Procedure Errors The Errors graph shows the errors that occurred while receiving the frames for the last 15 minutes. The errors are measured in frames per second. To see an enlarged view, click the graph.  The enlarged view provides Last, Minimum, Maximum, and Average statistics for the In and Out frames. To see the exact utilization percent at a particular time, hover the cursor over the graph line. To monitor the errors for the IAP for the last 15 minutes, 1. Log in to the WebUI. The Virtual Controller view appears. This is the default view. 2. In the Access Points tab, click the name link of the IAP for which you want to monitor the errors. The IAP view appears. 3. Study the Errors graph in the RF Trends pane. For example, the graph on the left shows that the errors for the IAP at 22:48 hours is 9514.0 frames per second. NOTE: You can also click the rectangle icon under the Errors column in the RF Dashboard pane to see the Errors graph for the selected IAP. Usage Trends The Usage Trends section displays the following graphs for the selected network:  Clients Graph  Throughput Graph For more information about the usage trends graphs in the instant access point view and or monitoring procedures, see Table 29. Table 29 Instant Access Point View - Usage Trends and Monitoring Procedures Graph Name Description Monitoring Procedure Clients Throughput The Clients graph shows the number of clients associated with the selected IAP for the last 15 minutes. To see an enlarged view, click the graph.  The enlarged view provides Last, Minimum, Maximum, and Average statistics for the number of clients associated with the IAP for the last 15 minutes. To see the exact number of clients associated with the selected IAP at a particular time, hover the cursor over the graph line. To check the number of clients associated with the IAP for the last 15 minutes, 1. Log in to the Instant UI. The Virtual Controller view appears. This is the default view. 2. In the Access Points tab, click the IAP for which you want to monitor the client association. The IAP view appears. 3. Study the Clients graph in the Usage Trends pane. For example, the graph on the left shows that one client is associated with the IAP at 12:12 hours. The Throughput graph shows the throughput for the selected IAP for the last 15 minutes.  Outgoing traffic - Throughput for outgoing traffic is displayed in green. Outgoing traffic is shown about the median line.  Incoming traffic - Throughput for incoming traffic is displayed in blue. Incoming traffic is shown below the median line. To see an enlarged view, click the graph.  The enlarged view provides Last, Minimum, Maximum, and Average statistics for the incoming and outgoing traffic throughput of the IAP for the last 15 minutes. To see the exact throughput of the selected IAP at a particular time, hover the cursor over the graph line. To check the throughput of the selected IAP for the last 15 minutes, 1. Log in to the Instant UI. The Virtual Controller view appears. This is the default view. 2. In the Access Points tab, click the IAP for which you want to monitor the throughput. The IAP view appears. 3. Study the Throughput graph in the Usage Trends pane. For example, the graph on the left shows 4.0 kbps incoming traffic throughput at 12:08 hours.
