CAPsMAN TX/RX Issues

Sun Jun 09, 2024 4:43 am

Hi all and thanks for this forum I've learned a lot I'm new to the Mikrotik but love the functionality of it for such a small device it packs a punch coming from a retail Netgear and Dlink this Mikrotik rocks cheers.

I have a hap3AX as my main router and then I have 2 capAX and a HapAx2 running as APs with the use of CAPsMAN all running fine and all are connected to the HApax3 with a Netgear switch for the main lan items(Mikrotik switch coming now lol)
Everything can connect to all APs and so on but I have this little problem I have been searching for a while now and I have tried a lot of connection and settings scenarios but nothing seems to be working am I missing something or is it just not supposed to work like this??

In the hapax3 I look at the wifi I can see all the ap there all connected and working they have a MB beside the names but I can't see any traffic flowing threw them in the tx/rx like I can see on the hapax3 in the same section??

am I missing something or is that how it is??
i can log into the Capax individually I can see the tx/rx from there but I thought CAPsMAN was the central position to see all this.

just want to see which AP is getting used and by who and what bandwidth and speeds are like the interface list but in the wifi section

in the DHCP server lease, I can see who is connected to what AP but still not what I'm after

this is my current firewall rules I am pretty sure it is all okay to watch videos to set up

Please help it is doing my head in as I think it is something I haven't set or done correctly or missed??

WiFi CAPsMAN can only control WiFi interfaces, and WiFi CAPs can join only WiFi CAPsMAN, similarly, regular CAPsMAN only supports non-WiFi caps.

The CAPs don't send traffic usage information to CAPsMAN.

You get most of this info on the "Registration" tab.
