Discover Clients
When the tester is on, it monitors each channel for probe
request frames to discover client devices. To see these
clients, use the Clients button on the home screen.
In addition to the client MAC address, information such as
channels used, data rate, probed SSIDs, the connected SSID
and access point of an associated client are shown.
The client screens include a Locate function to help you find
clients. See page 80.
When an associated client is highlighted in the test. Press
Access Point Details to see the details of the associated
Access Point.
When you use the Clients function, the tester monitors each
channel for a longer time than when you use other
functions. This lets the tester find more clients on each
channel.
To discover clients
From the home screen, select Clients. Figure 21 shows the
Clients screen.
To see details about a client, highlight the client, then press
L. See Figure 22.
Note
The tester shows the most recent information for a
client only when the client transmits data while the
tester monitors the channel that the client uses. To
collect client information quickly, go to Tools >
Manage 802.11 settings and enable only one band.
This decreases the number of tester monitored
channels.
