    Abstract: An access point providing a client device with access to a communication network detects an anomaly in packet traffic being transmitted to or received from the client device. In response, the access point performs a packet capture by triggering the release of stored packets. The access point determines an anomaly type representing a root cause of the anomaly and annotates the packet capture with the anomaly type. The access point also detects radio frequency interference exceeding a prescribed threshold and, in response, performs a spectrum capture. The packet capture, annotated with the anomaly type, and the spectrum capture are reported either automatically or in response to a request.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for assigning default an alternative BSS colors in a wireless local area network (WLAN) including a network graph representing radio neighbors include assigning a frequency range and EIRP for each radio represented in the network graph; generating a subgraph of radios operating at the same frequency range; for the subgraph, determining a minimum number of basic service set (BSS) colors required to BSS color the subgraph without BSS color conflict; based on the minimum number of BSS colors, assigning a default BSS color to each radio in the subgraph to avoid BSS color conflict among radios in the subgraph; based on remaining BSS colors, assigning one or more alternative BSS colors to each radio in the subgraph.

    Abstract: Methods for assigning effective isotopic radiated power to an access point in a wireless network are provided. In one aspect, a method includes determining weights for neighboring access points in a wireless network based on channel frequency and basic service set color assignments. For a particular access point, a first path loss based on the determined weights and a second path loss based on the neighboring access points are calculated. First and second effective isotopic radiated power values are calculated based on the respective first and second path losses. The effective isotopic radiated power of the particular access point is adjusted based on the lower of the first and second calculated effective isotopic radiated power values. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
