For example, it can be used to get the top 5 or top 100 Access Points filtered by a specific Mobility Controller serial number.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve the top 10 Access Points in the monitoring domain to analyze network performance.
  2. Get the top 5 Access Points filtered by a specific cluster ID to troubleshoot connectivity issues.
