Hello,

Is there a way to check channel utilization in unleashed software 200.7?

Hi @kessvn 

You can use the command "get airtime wifi1" or "get airtime wifi0" to check the airtime utilization of the radio.
Below is the sample output of how it looks.

get airtime wifi1
Raw counters:
Total:         25       19
Busy:           3        3
Tx:             1        1
Rx:            21       15

They indicate time spent by the radio in receiving the data (which is RX), in transmitting the data (which is TX), and percentage time wasted due to non-WiFi signals (which is Busy) in the operating frequency band.

High RX percentage values above 30% indicate too much co-channel interference or a misbehaving client.
High Busy percentage values above 30% should also be concerning as well because this percentage takes out the time from servicing the clients.

Under Access Points, AP, I see %AirTime info for each radio. Is this what you are looking for? (My software is newer version, so not sure if you have the same option).

I see this too in the latest software version, but can't find it in the 200.7 which is the latest firmware for some AP models.

Many older AP models are not supported later than 200.7 version. Please confirm your AP model or refer the release notes for desired software version.
