Filtering Associated Clients

Use the filtering options on the Clients tab to display wireless clients based on the criteria you specify. These filtering options are especially useful when a large number of wireless clients are associated with APs in your venues.

Searching for Connected and Historical Clients

The Clients tab can display both connected and disconnected (historical) wireless clients. To search for connected clients, enter the partial or full user name or host name, MAC address, IP address, OS type, AP name, or VLAN ID in the search field, and then click the search (magnifying glass) button. The page displays any matching clients.

Search criteria for historical clients is restricted to partial or full user name, host name, or MAC address.

Connected and historical clients display in two separate lists. To view client details, click any row in the tables.

Note: The user name and MAC address are not case-sensitive.

Attention: IP address-based searches are performed on each octet in the IP address as a number (not as a string). This means that a search match only occurs if the search string matches exactly one of the four octets in the IP address. For example, if you entered "78" in the search box, "10.104.2.78" will be a match, but "10.104.2.178" will not be a match.

Displaying Clients That Belong to a Particular Venue

By default, the Clients page displays all wireless clients that belong to all managed venues. To display only wireless clients that belong to a particular venue, click the down arrow after All Venues, and then select the venue for which you want to view associated wireless clients.

Displaying Clients That Are Associated with a Particular AP

By default, the Clients page displays all wireless clients that belong to all managed APs. To display only wireless clients that are associated with a particular AP, click the down arrow after All APs, and then select the AP for which you want to view associated wireless clients.
