Aironet 3500: Spectrum Expert Connect Mode

How do I connect to a 3500 to see the spectrum analysis? The manual says to download version 4.0 of the Cisco Spectrum Expert software but the latest verion is 3.3.52. What am I missing?
I want to get the most out of these new APs !!
Thanks,
Andrew

It is still Beta code.  Not only do you need the Beta code, but a key
as well.  After you have that installed, you log into your controller and
change the mode of your AP to SE-Connect and reboot the AP.
Then you go to the AP, copy another "key" from the AP and also
gather the IP address if it is DHCP.
You paste the key into your Spectrum Expert that is running on your
laptop, along with the IP address of the AP.
Then you can remotely see your spectrum.
I have done this before since I tested a 3500 for a few weeks before
sending it back to Cisco.
I'm impressed.. it is definately a nice feature.

  • Where to download Cisco Spectrum Expert Connect (4.0 or greater)?

    I downloaded the Wireless CleanAir Deployment Guide and on step 7, it stated:
    On a Supported Windows platform with Cisco Spectrum Expert Connect (4.0 or greater) installed.
    Where can I download Cisco Spectrum Expert Connect (4.0 or greater)?
    We need to use it on our Upgraded WLC v7.0. Please kindly advice.
    Thank You.
    Junhan

    Hi,
    it will only officially be available early 2011 with the new release of WLC 7.0
    However, there is a pre-Beta release and it seems ok to share with customers willing to try it out early.
    No need to mention that you should not be complaining about bugs or any explosion induced by the beta software :-)
    I'm attaching it here if you want to try the current version.

  • AP Reported channel utilization in Prime does not match reported channel utilization in Spectrum Expert

    Hello
    I have a fairly dense Wireless network with an Accesspoint per room. The 3502 models are connected to WiSM with Software 7.0.240.0 and are managed with Prime Infrastructure 2.2 (the issue was also in older PI versions).
    PI reports on the 802.11b/g/n interface a channel utilization of 32% with a RX and TX utilization of 0% (no clients are connected to this AP). If I open this AP now in Spectrum Expert (thanks to CleanAir), I have a channel utilization of less than 5%, no interference power at all. Also the Swept Spectrometer is only showing signal with less than -85dbi (with a few very rare higher powered specks).
    So which value is now correct, or do they show something different?
    Thanks,
    Patrick

    This is very important to understand. I should actually do a blog post on the subjey, it comes up often. 
    Think like a wifi radio. You can only do 3 things: send, receive, listen. And you can only do one of these at a time. While in listen mode, you hear other traffic on your channel within range. In send mode you tx data on the channel. In receive mode you Rx data on the channel. Based on these functions. You as an AP can determine how often the medium (channel) is busy or not. 
    Lets go a bit deeper. Before a frame is sent a preamble is triggered to sync all clients on the channel. These client do not know yet if the frame is for them or not. Then the phy header comes telling clients how lomg/time the frame will take to send. Then the actual frame gets punched and all the clients receive it. The client brimg it up from the PMD layer to the data layer. Look at the Mac address and if its for them they process the frame. If it's not for them they drop it. But before they drop it they peek at the Nav timer in the duration / ID field and back off again. This time for the SIFS and ACK. This busy time calculates the number you are seeing .. Better ? 
    I normally dont don't worry about channel utilization till 40% under load. If you are at 40 without load I bet you habe 1 PHY mandatory .. Do you ? 

  • Spectrum Expert - USB or Express Card

    The Spectrum Expert is a great tool but the problem is to find a notebook with a PC-Card / PCMCIA  slot.
    I know that there are adapters available for EC to PC-Card but I think this is not a solution for customers.
    I didn't find any information on the Cisco website about an alternative.
    Question: When will be a Spectrum Expert Card available with USB or EC connector?

    Hi Irina and Scott,
    I know the AP SE-Connect feature but we need a portable solution.
    Cisco should think about a USB or Express Card solution.
    The APs are working with the Spectrum Expert and it will be hard to explain to a customer that he should use a 3rd party solution to get a mobile solution.
    Thanks and best regards,
    Carsten

  • Connection mode between SAP and PI

    Hi Experts,
    i now have the below question.
    we know normally there are three ways of connection between SAP ECC and PI.
    1. proxy
    2. RFC
    3. IDoc
    then what is the connection mode for these three connections?
    eg. ABAP connection, HTTP connection, TCP/IP connection?

    Hi Aditya,
    As far as I know:
    1. proxy    uses type 3 connection (ABAP)
    2. RFC       uses type T connection (TCP/IP)
    3. IDoc      uses type 3 connection (ABAP)
    However, let us wait for the response of others.
    Regards,
    Mark

  • Spectrum Expert can't detect Wireless network and show SNR info

    Hello,
    We are using the version 3.2.163 of the Spectrum Expert on a shared laptop. I was able to see SSIDs under Active Devices and get display in SNR chart before. But recently for some reason, I can can't get SSIDs and only get interfering devices listed under Active Devices and got nothing deplayed in the SNR chart. I could not trace back what has been changed and double checked most of the settings, still not luck.
    I appreciate any suggestions to get this fixed.
    Thank you!

    Humm, no comments from the experts?
    Ok, I will give it a try.
    I have SE 3.3.53 connected to a version 1 sensor card, loaded in a Compaq nw8440 laptop with an Intel 3945ABG nic.
    Win7.
    Spectrum Expert Sensor card provides the Analog RF energy data.  Only.
    The 3945 provides the digital network information via the windows API (WZC in XP) (WLAN AutoConfig in Win7).
    Various windows patches and updates have interfeered with the ability of third-party applications to intercept or latch-on-to the data from the wnic.
    SE no longer hears my 3945.  However, I plugin a Cisco/Linksys AE2500 usb unit and presto Active Device data appears.
    Interesting feature is that when I remove the USB wnic, the data link established attaches to the onboard wnic data stream.
    On my XP desktop I use SE 4.1.11 for SE Remote.
    The digital link is also broken, with everything I try.  But then you don't want/need Active Device data from your house when your remoting to a distant shop.
    I don't understand why the 3502/3602's can pass digital info right along with the analog data.
    So in your case maybe installing another wnic might help with your issue.

  • Cisco Jabber for Windows in Extend and Connect mode and making outbound calls

    Hi guys,
    I've set up Cisco Jabber for Windows to use Extend and Connect to control a remote PBX endpoint. I've configured the required CTI-RD device, remote destinations, associated the users to the line and added the devices to end-user controlled device. The extend and connect part is working flawlessly without any issues. I'm able to receive inbound calls on the remote PBX endpoint and control the call (hold, resume, transfer etc.) using the Jabber call window that pops up.
    However, I'm unable to make any outbound calls via the Jabber client when in extend and Connect mode. Reading the Extend and Connect guide, I need to configure Dial Via Office (DVO) Reverse. So when the user initiates a Dial-Via-Office reverse call, CUCM calls and connect to the Extend and Connect device (CTI-RD). CUCM then calls and connects to the number the user dialled and finally connects the two call legs.
    After attempting to configure DVO-R for Jabber for Windows in Extend and Connect mode following the CUCM feature services guide, i'm unable to get any outbound calls working. From RTMT, i am receiving the following Termination Cause Code: (27) Destination out of order. What i also notice is that there is no calling number for that trace either. I would've thought that the calling party would've been the Enterprise Feature Access (EFA) number.
    Has anyone got this working or can provide some guidance?
    Thanks.

  • File adapter - connection mode

    Hi,
    RE: File adapter
    Can someone please supply me with some information:
    What is the difference between connect mode - permanently/file per transfer?
    When does the connection get closed?
    Thanks,
    Leanne

    Hi,
    Permanently:
    An existing connection to the FTP server is used permanently.
    The connection is reestablished automatically if it is closed by the server.
    ==>> It will not get closed if the data flows continuesly.it will get closed if it is not in use. then when ever the use comes into picture means the connection will be Established automatically.
    Per File Transfer:
    A new connection to the FTP server is established for each file transfer.
    ==>>It will be closed for each and every file Transfer and will be opened every time.
    Connection mode Permanantly will be better, each and every time closing and opening is not recomended

    That's not saying you or your shutdown is in "connected mode" (that term doesn't exist in oracle). That is simply feedback from the sqlplus that it has established a connection to the database.

  • Connect Mode for FTP Sender

    Dear all,
    We have options for Connect mode as Permanently & Per file transfer, When we connect to FTP site, which is the best one to choose according to best practice?
    Regards

    If you have large number of small files to be retrieved, "permanently" mode reduces the overhead caused by creating a new connection.
    However, this will keep the connection open until the next polling. So, if you have polling each 1 hour, the connection will be held open. SAP recommends the "per file transfer" usage.
    Please also check the SDN thread below:
