Connecting Spectrum Devices to the Spectrum Analysis Client
A spectrum analysis client is any laptop or desktop computer that can access the controller WebUI and receive
streaming data from individual spectrum monitors or hybrid APs. Once you have configured one or more APs
to operate as a spectrum monitor or hybrid AP, use the Spectrum Monitors window to identify the spectrum
devices you want to actively connect to the spectrum analysis client. To connect one or more spectrum devices
to your client:
1. Navigate to Monitoring > Spectrum Analysis.
2. Click the Spectrum Monitors tab.
3. Click Add. A table appears, displaying a list of spectrum analysis devices, sorted by name. Single-radio
spectrum devices have a single entry in this table, and dual-radio spectrum devices have two entries: one for
each radio. This table displays the following data for each radio.
