In a large-scale wireless application environment, an NMS platform collects wireless service reports from the subordinate NMS platforms and creates hierarchical reports. Hierarchical reports summarize performance data, such as AP performance and service availability.
The following types of hierarchical reports are available: AP Association Summary Report, AP Availability Summary Report, AP Availability Detail Report, AP Offline Summary Report, AP Offline Detail Report, AP Traffic Summary Report, AP Traffic Detail Report, Radio Usage Report, Client Number Trend Report, and Wireless Asset Statistic Report.
Do not add location views with the same name or APs with the same IP address on hierarchical NMS platforms. Otherwise, the location views or APs will be displayed as one location view or AP in a bar chart report.
