Overview

This node operation retrieves detailed radio information for a specific access point (AP) within Aruba Central's monitoring domain. It is useful for network administrators who need to monitor and analyze the performance and status of individual radios on an AP, including optional metrics like channel utilization, channel quality, noise floor, and frame trends (drops, errors, retries). For example, it can be used to diagnose wireless performance issues or optimize radio configurations.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve radio details for an AP by specifying its serial number and radio number, optionally including channel utilization and noise floor trends for deeper analysis.
  2. Monitor radio performance trends over time to identify potential interference or hardware issues.
