Instant OS - arm rf-summary

    Posted Feb 22, 2017 05:53 AM

    Dear Community,

     

    I'm currently trying to find some documentation / info regarding the CLI output of "show ap arm rf-summary" in the Instant OS context.

     

    From the info I collected and what I can observe in the CLI compared with the GUI I conclude the following:

    -Q is the quality index of the channel

    -N is the noise floor of the channel

    -U is the channel utilization of that specific channel.

    -Also each "column" of the output reflect 10s of time. I guess the value displayed for 10s is an average and not a Max/Min value.

     

    Next to that I have no idea what the c / s / R value reference to.

    Globally if someone has more info regarding this I'm really interested, also don't hesitate to correct me if my "assumptions" above are wrong.

    I don't know the answers to all of your questions, but it seems that your RF utilization is going to 99% in the middle, which suggests severe non-wifi interference.  Is this the only AP that this is happening to?  How often does it happen?  The suggestion would be to turn the IAP into a spectrum monitor to see if it could identify the source of interference:  http://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Controller-less-WLANs/How-to-configure-and-run-Spectrum-monitor-in-Aruba-Instant-APs/ta-p/179698
