Which steps should they follow to achieve this task in Cisco PI?
- A
Navigate to the 'Reports' section in Cisco PI and select 'Custom Reports'.
- B
Choose the 'Client Performance' report template and set the time range to the past 7 days.
- C
Enable SNMP polling on all access points to collect client performance data.
- D
Schedule the report generation or run it immediately within the report configuration wizard.
- E
Export the generated report in the desired format (e.g., PDF or CSV).
- F
Enable 'Enhanced Reporting' in the Cisco PI settings to access client performance data.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D, E
Explanation
To generate a detailed client performance report in Cisco Prime Infrastructure (PI), administrators must access the 'Reports' section, choose an appropriate report template (such as 'Client Performance'), configure the necessary parameters (like time range), and either schedule or generate the report immediately. Once created, the report can be exported for further use. While SNMP polling and enhanced reporting settings are useful for other purposes, they are not prerequisites for generating client performance reports.
- A. Correct.
Navigating to the 'Reports' section and selecting 'Custom Reports' is the first step to accessing and generating detailed reports in Cisco PI.
- B. Correct.
The 'Client Performance' report template is specifically designed to provide insights into client signal strength, data rates, and health, making it ideal for this scenario.
- C. Incorrect.
Enabling SNMP polling is not required for report generation in Cisco PI, as the system already collects necessary data from the managed devices.
- D. Correct.
Scheduling or running the report immediately is a necessary step to generate the report after configuring the parameters.
- E. Correct.
Exporting the report in the desired format allows the administrator to store or share the information as needed.
- F. Incorrect.
Enabling 'Enhanced Reporting' is not a required step to generate client performance reports in Cisco PI.
