How to Decrypt PSK Packets Captured with Wireshark

During fault finding with WLAN networks, there comes a point where you just have to take it down to the lowest level. Sometimes it is because you have a bug and you need to see the exact behaviour of devices in the network, in order to work out where the issue lies.

Wi-Fi and The Problem With RADAR (DFS)

It sounds like a bit of a stretch for most people that Wi-Fi would have an issue with Radar. Microwave ovens are a pretty well known interferer with Wi-Fi in the 2.4GHz spectrum (they generate alerts for interferers, so we know they're there!)

Reduce Wi-Fi Congestion with DFS

Wi-Fi can be crippled by too many devices competing for airtime, creating a slower experience for all users. One way to reduce the number of devices competing for airtime is to increase the number of channels in use. How do the Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) Channels fit into this picture?

Introduction to Cisco AI-Enhanced RRM

Radio Resource Management (RRM) is all about delivering an automated way to tune the RF in your Cisco network. However - for a variety of reasons, it doesn't always get it right. Misconfigured RRM can cause a lot of issues for clients - particularly with roaming. There is now a better option - Cisco Artificial Intelligence Enhanced RRM.

How to Configure Cisco AI-Enhanced RRM

Cisco AI-Enhanced RRM is the way to deliver enhanced RRM outcomes for your network. What does that mean? We can now use a longer duration data set in order to work out peaks and troughs on your Wi-Fi usage and deliver the most optimal environment, using Artificial Intelligence with this data. In this blog we'll look at how to configure AI-Enhanced RRM.

What is EIRP: EIRP vs Transmit Power

What power is your AP Transmitting at? With Cisco APs, we can see a power level, which is normally in the range of 1 - 8 (1-6 for some APs), but what is the actual dB power level the AP is transmitting at? This is a combination of a lot of factors - let's take a look.

How does Cisco AI-Enhanced RRM Work

In essence, Cisco AI-Enhanced RRM is making use of the normal RRM features. These tools are essentially set to automatic mode, and AI-Enhanced RRM makes use of these to tune the network. Based upon the analysis of your anonymised data, AI-Enhanced RRM sends back instructions from the cloud to your Cisco DNA Center on how best to optimise these features.
