For each AP, there are more settings available to configure and fine-tune the system. In addition, FitController collects and aggregates lots of data reported by AP periodically. Sophisticated graphs and tables are available in the AP detail page to ease the monitoring and tracking on an AP. To get all the details, at AP list page, hover your mouse cursor on the row of AP you interested. A Details button is shown and click on it to get into AP detail page.
The first TAB page summarizes AP's current settings and states. All details of configurations and statistics are shown in this page.
The SSID section allows you to check and configure the exact SSID settings for this AP.
SSID: shows the SSID name.
Radio: shows the Radio (2.4GHz or 5GHz bands) turned on in this AP.
Security: security type set on the SSID.
Captive portal: shows authentication type for captive portal.
The Throughput section allows you to check the throughput statistics for this AP. Note that you can control the filters to get different results based on your requirement:
By SSID
By Time (daily/weekly/monthly)
The Radio section allows you to configure individual radio settings. The default radio setting will be followed by the network radio setting. If you want the radio settings of an access point to be different from the default, you can override them with custom values.
This section allows you to configure IP address settings for the AP individually.

The FitController Log contains several logging subsystems that each have unique data retention and export options available. Datasets like device event, system configuration, and analytics are used for starkly different purposes (business intelligence, operations, risk management, etc.) and are reflected in the native logging capabilities. In the Log TAB page, the system list all the device logs for current AP. If you need to track events across a network, check Device Events for more details.
While the device log provides a thorough timeline of events on the AP, it is usually unnecessary to view all events. The following options are available to filter down the event log as needed.
Filtering events to a specific client can help troubleshoot individual connectivity issues. Entering the MAC address, hostname, or custom name in the Client field will display only events affecting that client, excluding other client information and device events. For the same reason, SSID field can be used to filter out events related with other SSIDs.
The event log shows all events for clients and devices, starting with the most recent event by default. The date filters are useful to display only events that happened at or before the specified period.
The event log are categorized in different severity:
Error
Warning
General
You can also set the filter to only show the logs with dedicated severity.
The following types of events will be reported by EnSky access points:
WLAN Client Connection
WLAN Client Control
WLAN Radio
Client Roaming
Device Status
Mesh
AirGuard
The filter also support all types of events listed above.
Clients page provides comprehensive details of wireless clients that ever managed by the access point.
This page is filtered for current AP and supports all features as same as in Managing Clients. To get more details, please refer to the Managing Clients section.
Tips:
To browse the clients page by page, you just need to scroll down the page to the end of screen. The web system will automatically load next page for you.
The clients in the list are historical data reported by AP minutes ago.

LED Light: This allows you to enable or disable all LEDs on the AP. This is helpful if users does not want to LEDs of AP interfering their vision at night.
