    Basic Configuration Fields

    • Gateway(s)*: by default this is set to the gateway(s) selected in the gateway tree. Enter the name(s) manually to modify this field. Click on Filter to open the subfilter options.
    • Report time range*: use the drop-down menu to select from Previous Months, Previous Weeks, Previous Days or Range. Enter the numeric value in the field. When Range is selected, use the calendar pop-up to select the dates. Alternatively, enter the date and time manually (yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm).
    • Partially hide MAC addresses and fully hide hostnames: when enabled, hides part of the MAC address, and all of the client names.
    • Value to graph: when set to Total, the blocks on the report represent the total number of clients who accessed the LAN in the area. When set to Average, the blocks on the report represent the average number of clients who accessed the LAN in the area, where “average” is calculated as the total number of clients/the number of trips in the area.
    • Limit to map area: select Not Limited to include data from any geographic location. Select Manually defined area to create a temporary zone for the analysis – only data from inside this zone will be included in the report. Select One or more zones to limit the analysis to one or more predefined zones (see the AMM Operation and Configuration guide for more information about zones).
    • Exclusion Zones: allows the report to exclude data from one or more predefined zones (see the AMM Operation and Configuration guide for more information about zones). Leave this option checked (default setting) to include data from any geographic location. Uncheck this option to specify zones to exclude data from.
    • Output Format: select HTML to generate the report in the browser window. Select Excel to display the generated report in Microsoft Excel. Note that the Excel option only works for reports which produce data in a table format.
    • Save for later or schedule a run time: enable to create reports that can be saved for future use. See Saving and Scheduling a Report for a Later Run Time for more information.

    Advanced Configuration Fields

    • Animate results by: animates the coverage over the specified report time range, in intervals defined by this dropdown. By default, ** None ** is selected which turns animation off.
    • Map resolution: defines the size of colored “blocks” presented in a map. The default resolution is auto.
    • Color ranges: defines the percentage of total usage to associate with the colored blocks on the map. This provides a visual perspective on the concentration of client connections. Four values must be specified, corresponding to the four map colors: red, orange, yellow, and green respectively, or this field must be left blank to accept the defaults (0, 12%, 50%, 100%).
    • Map range colors: defines the different colors used on the map to represent strengths of coverage areas (used on some coverage related reports). Click on each color to access the color picker and to change the color.
