        • Time to Connect: Displays the average percentage of successful Wi-Fi connections across all clients that meet the SLE threshold configured in the AI Assurance Health page. This metric measures the time taken for each client to complete key connection stages such as 802.11 authentication, association, Layer 2 authentication, and DHCP IP assignment. This metric does not include the time taken for Layer 3 authentication.
        • Client Throughput: Displays the average percentage of Wi‑Fi sessions across all clients that meet the configured SLE threshold in the AI Assurance Health page.

      • Traffic: Displays the total volume of user traffic for devices associated with an identity, including both transmitted (Tx) and received (Rx) data. The data is visualized in a donut chart segmented into Tx and Rx, with the overall traffic volume displayed at the center.
      • Top 10 Applications by Traffic Volume: Displays the top 10 applications based on traffic consumption for devices associated with the identity. The list shows each application along with its corresponding traffic volume. Data is also visualized in a donut chart, segmented by applications, with the total traffic volume displayed at the center.
      • Associated Devices: Displays the total number of devices linked to an identity. The data is visualized in a donut chart, with the overall device count displayed at the center. This count includes both currently and previously connected devices.
