466 CHAPTER 17: MONITORING THE NETWORKVoice Monitoring with Traffic Views3WXM 6.0 now includes monitoring functions which can assist withvoice deployments. QoS statistics, including per-queue Tx and Rx counts,can be accessed through the Traffic Monitor dashboard, allowing you toperform real-time monitoring of QoS on a specific radio or a specificclient.Using the FloorView MonitorBefore implementing a wireless network, a floor plan is configured thatuses RF Planning and Location. You can select a MAP access point fromthe Monitoring Equipment tree and display a floor map with that APselected.From this view, you can generate visualizations of operational statisticssuch as RSSI, re-transmits, SNR, and signal level to determine problemareas.To find an AP on the floor1 Click on the Monitor option in the main 3WXM tool bar.2 Expand the Site list tree in the Organizer panel and select the access pointyou want to view.3 3WXM automatically opens the Floor View panel, displaying a floor mapwith the selected access point highlighted.4 Select a statistic from the Task panel to generate a topographicalvisualization of that data. (If you choose the RF Interference, HighUtilization, or Coverage Hole options and re-transmit rates within thedepicted area do not exceed 10% of total network bytes, 3WXM displaysa message dialog instead of generating a visualization.)In the example below, the selected access point is highlighted and RSSIfor the coverage area is depicted in the Floor Viewer.
