Measures reported by RZDApRadioTest

This test auto-discovers the radios available in the access points that are associated with the Ruckus ZoneDirector and measures the resource utilization and data transmitted and received by each radio. This test also reveals the rate at which the packets were transmitted and received and the rate at which the failed transmitted packets were retransmitted. Besides, this test reports the number of authentications that were performed successfully and the number of authentications that failed.

Using these statistics, administrators can easily figure out the reasons behind the bottle-neck condition in the radios, can isolate the transmission failures and authentication related issues and can fix those issues quickly.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each radio available in the access points that are controlled by the target Ruckus ZoneDirector being monitored.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Resource_utilization Indicates the percentage of resource utilized by this radio. Percent A utilization value close to 100% is a cause for concern.
Transmitted_packet Indicates the rate at which the packets were transmitted from this radio. Packets/Sec  
Received_packet Indicates the rate at which the packets were received by this radio. Packets/Sec  
Transmitted_data Indicates the rate at which the data was transmitted from this radio. MB/Sec  
Received_data Indicates the rate at which the data was received by this radio. MB/Sec  
Transmitted_mcast_packet Indicates the rate at which the multicast packets were transmitted from this radio. Packets/Sec  
Received_mcast_packet Indicates the rate at which the multicast packets were received by this radio. Packets/Sec  
Failed_transmitted_packet Indicates the rate at which the packets were failed during transmission. Packets/Sec  
Retry_transmitted_packet Indicates the rate at which the packets were retransmitted by this radio after transmission failure. Packets/Sec  
Success_Authentication Indicates the number of authentications that were performed successfully by this radio. Number  
Failed_Authentication Indicates the number of authentications that failed. Number Ideally, the value of this measure should be zero.
Transmitted_power Indicates the current transmit power status of this radio.   The values reported by this measure and its numeric equivalents are mentioned in the table below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Full 0
Half 1
Quarter 2
Eighth 3

Note:

By default, this measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above to indicate the current transmit power status of this radio. The graph of this measure however, represents the current transmit power status using the numeric equivalents only.

Power_mgt Indicates the current power management status of this radio.   The values reported by this measure and its numeric equivalents are mentioned in the table below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Enabled 1
Disabled 0

Note:

By default, this measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above to indicate the current power management status of this radio. The graph of this measure however, represents the current power management status of this radio using the numeric equivalents only.
