How do you check performance on Access point ?

prashan — Wed, 05 Sep 2018 15:37:29 GMT

AP122 performance is 2x2:2 MIMO 300 + 867Mbps and AP250 performance is 3x3:3 MU-MIMO 1300Mbps SSR +1300Mbps.

How do you check the performance on AP122 & AP250, even port is support 1GE. ? And also switches should be multigig ports right ?

The ports on the AP will sense what the switch is offering and adjust to that accordingly. The switches are multigig capable, you would set this in the device template.

You can check what the AP is using by running the command "show int ethX" where X is the port number we're checking.

For example:

So @Sam Pirok, switches should be either support multi gig or 10GE. Otherwise we cannot get the full performance from the AP right ?

Technically that is correct, but generally networks don't come anywhere near the max speeds that the APs can reach and you'd be fine with a switch that works at lower speeds. However, if you want to use the max speed possible on an AP, you would want a switch that can also use those speeds.
