- 8 -MEASURING WLAN THROUGHPUTThe throughput measurement shows the performance of the TCP/IP layer over the wireless link. To achieve the best results,run the measurement test in a clean environment with as little interference as possible . The test can be run with the adapterconnected to either an Infrastructure network (see Fig. 2.2) or an ad hoc network (see Fig. 2.3). An AP that is known to bein good working order should be used for the infrastructure mode test.MEASURING THROUGHPUT USING NETIQ CHARIOTTest Procedure1. Bring up the AW-AM691NF demo boar with the IP address set as 192.168.1.110.2. Connect the reference computer with Chariot Console, which is assigned an IP address of 192.168.1.100, to the LANport of the AP3. Verify that communication exists between the reference computer and the AW-AM691NF demo board by pinging 192.168.1.100from the AW-AM691NF host console.HOST COMPUTER.AW-AM691NFEndPointReferenceComputerChariot ConsoleHOST COMPUTER.AW-AM691NFEndPointALAN ReferenceComputerChariot ConsoleFIG. 2.2FIG. 2.3
