Access Points → Get Radio Noise Floor

AI-generated

Overview

This node operation retrieves the radio noise floor data for a specific radio within an access point in Aruba Central Next Gen. It is useful for monitoring the radio environment to assess interference and signal quality, which helps in optimizing wireless network performance. For example, network administrators can use this to identify noisy channels or areas with high interference affecting wireless connectivity.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve the noise floor for radio 0 on an access point with a given serial number to analyze interference levels.
  2. Monitor noise floor trends over a specific time range to detect changes in the wireless environment.

Properties

Name Meaning
Debug Mode Whether to enable detailed debug logs for troubleshooting.
Domain API domain to interact with, set to 'monitoring' for this operation.
Serial Number Access point serial number to identify the specific device for which the radio noise floor data is retrieved.
Radio Number Radio number within the access point to specify which radio's noise floor data to retrieve.
Time Range Optional start and end time for data retrieval to specify the period for which noise floor data is requested.

Output

JSON

  • noiseFloor - The measured radio noise floor value for the specified radio on the access point.
  • timestamp - The time at which the noise floor measurement was taken.
  • serialNumber - The serial number of the access point from which the data was retrieved.
  • radioNumber - The radio number within the access point for which the noise floor data applies.

Dependencies

  • Aruba Central Next Gen API with OAuth2 authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the serial number and radio number are correctly specified and correspond to an existing access point and radio.
  • Verify that the API domain is set to 'monitoring' as this operation requires monitoring domain access.
  • If enabling debug mode, check the detailed logs for specific error messages or API response issues.
  • Common errors may include authentication failures, invalid parameters, or network connectivity issues. Verify credentials and network access to Aruba Central API.
