Protocol analyzer Manual RF site surveys are conducted on
the customer's premise and allow Wi-Fi engineers to gather information to
properly deploy a Wi-Fi network. When on-site, engineers can use protocol
analyzers for network discovery and identification. Understanding the PHY type
(802.11a/b/g/n), signal strength, and operating channel of nearby networks can
help Wi-Fi site survey professionals to use channel plans and power settings
that avoid performance problems and interference with nearby networks.
