New Wireless Health Charts
Two new charts have been added to the Wireless Health Monitor showing spectrum analysis information on the sources of wireless interference.
In order for these widgets to appear, spectrum analysis must first be enabled. This is done by editing the AP profile used by your FortiAP units and selecting Spectrum Analysis for all applicable radios.
Spectrum analysis can also be enabled in the CLI.
Syntax
config wireless-controller wtp-profile
edit <name>
config <radio>
set spectrum-analysis enable
end
end
end
After spectrum analysis has been enabled, view the Top Wireless Interference widget found in the Wireless Health Monitor. A chart icon will appear in the Channel column. Selecting this icon will open the new WiFi charts: Spectrum Analysis and Top Wireless Interference.
The Spectrum Analysis chart shows WiFi signal interference as detected by a particular FortiAP.
The Top Wireless Interference chart shows SSIDs that are interfering with a particular FortiAP unit.
