Access Points → Get AP Throughput Trends

AI-generated

Overview

This node operation retrieves throughput trend data for a specific access point (AP) from Aruba Central Next Gen API. It is useful for monitoring the network performance of APs over a specified time range, helping network administrators analyze wireless, wired, or LTE interface throughput trends. For example, it can be used to track bandwidth usage patterns or diagnose network issues related to AP throughput.

Use Case Examples

  1. Monitoring throughput trends of a wireless access point over the last 24 hours to identify peak usage times.
  2. Analyzing wired interface throughput on an AP to detect potential bottlenecks or performance degradation.

Properties

Name Meaning
Debug Mode Enables detailed debug logs for troubleshooting.
Domain Specifies the API domain to interact with, such as monitoring or configuration.
Serial Number The serial number of the access point for which throughput trends are retrieved.
Time Range Defines the start and end time for data retrieval in ISO 8601 format.
Interface Type Specifies the type of interface (Wireless, Wired, LTE) for which to retrieve throughput data.

Output

JSON

  • throughputTrends - Array of throughput trend data points for the specified access point and interface type over the selected time range.

Dependencies

  • Aruba Central Next Gen API with OAuth2 authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the serial number of the access point is correct and the device is registered in Aruba Central.
  • Verify that the API domain is set to 'monitoring' as throughput trends are retrieved from monitoring data.
  • Check that the time range is valid and in ISO 8601 format; invalid dates may cause errors.
  • Enable Debug Mode to get detailed logs if the node execution fails for better troubleshooting.
  • Common error messages may include authentication failures, invalid parameters, or network connectivity issues. Verify credentials and network access to Aruba Central API.
