Table 39 Instant Access Point View - Usage Trends and Monitoring Procedures (Continued) Graph Name Description Monitoring Procedure Neighboring Clients Memory free (MB) Clients Throughput The Neighboring Clients graph shows the number of clients not connected to the selected AP, but heard by it: Valid: Any client that successfully authenticates with a valid AP and passes encrypted traffic is classified as a valid client. Interfering: A client associated to any AP and is not valid. To see the number of different types of neighboring clients for the last 15 minutes, hover the cursor over the respective graph lines. To check the neighboring clients detected by 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 Neighboring Clients graph in the Overview pane. For example, the graph shows that 20 interfering clients were detected by the IAP at 12:15 hours. The memory free graph displays the memory availability of the IAP in Mega Bytes (MB). To see the free memory of the IAP, hover the cursor over the graph line. To check the free memory of 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 Memory free graph in the Overview pane. For example, the graph shows that the free memory of the IAP is 64 MB at 12:13 hours. 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. For example, the graph shows that six clients are associated with the IAP at 12:11 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.
