Spectrum Analysis

Context

Spectrum analysis is not supported on the following APs.

AirEngine 5761-10W, AirEngine 5761S-10W, AirEngine 5761-10WD
AirEngine x762
AP3010DN-AGN, AP3010DN-V2, AP9330DN

On the Spectrum Analysis page, you can enable or disable the spectrum analysis function on a radio and view spectrum charts. The Spectrum Analysis page can display eight types of spectrum charts, including Swept Spectrogram, Active Devices, Real-Time FFT, Channel Metrics, Channel Quality Trend, FFT Duty Cycle, Interference Power, and Quality Spectrogram.

Procedure

Enable spectrum analysis on a radio and view spectrum charts.

Choose Monitoring > Wireless Service > Spectrum Analysis. The Radio List page is displayed.
