Parameter Description
Measurement
Mode for Beacon
Reports
Click the Measurement Mode for Beacon Reports drop-down list and specify one of the
following measurement modes:
n active—Enables active beacon measurement mode. In this mode, the client sends a probe
request to the broadcast destination address on all supported channels, sets a
measurement duration timer, and, at the end of the measurement duration, compiles all
received beacons or probe response with the requested SSID and BSSID into a
measurement report.
n beacon-table—Enables beacon-table beacon measurement mode. In this mode, the client
measures beacons and returns a report with stored beacon information for any supported
channel with the requested SSID and BSSID. The client does not perform any additional
measurements.
n passive—Enables passive beacon measurement mode. In this mode, the client sets a
measurement duration timer, and, at the end of the measurement duration, compiles all
received beacons or probe response with the requested SSID and BSSID into a
measurement report.
NOTE: If a station doesn't support the selected measurement mode, it returns a Beacon
Measurement Report with the Incapable bit set in the Measurement Report Mode field.
