Function

The display station steer-history command displays historical information about STA steering.

Format

display station steer-history

Parameters

None

Views

All views

Default Level

1: Monitoring level

Usage Guidelines

After the load balancing, band steering, or smart roaming function is enabled, STAs are steered. You can run this command to check historical information about STA steering.

Example

# Display historical information about steering of all STAs.
<HUAWEI> display station steer-history

Table 1 Description of the display station steer-history command output

Item

Description

Time

Time when a STA is triggered to steer.

Sta

MAC address of a STA.

Device(S/T/A)

ID of the source device/ID of the target device/ID of the device to which a STA is actually steered.

Radio(S/T/A)

ID of the source radio/ID of the target radio/ID of the radio to which a STA is actually steered.

Rssi(S/T/A)

RSSI of the source radio/RSSI of the target radio/RSSI of the radio to which a STA is actually steered.

Reason

Reason why a STA is triggered to steer.

  • Sticky: The STA is considered as a sticky STA, triggering smart roaming.
  • Sticky(A): The device periodically detects the roaming status and proactively triggers smart roaming.
  • LoadBalance: Load balancing is enabled.
  • BandSteer: Band steering is enabled.

Move-mode

Steering mode of a STA.

  • BTM
  • Deatuth

BTM_CODE

BTM steering status code.
  • 0: Accept
  • 1: Reject-Unspecified reject reason.
  • 2: Reject-Insufficient Beacon or Probe Response frames received from all candidates.
  • 3: Reject-Insufficient available capacity from all candidates.
  • 4: Reject-BSS termination undesired.
  • 5: Reject-BSS termination delay requested.
  • 6: Reject-STA BSS Transition Candidate List provided.
  • 7: Reject-No suitable BSS transition candidates.
  • 8: Reject-Leaving ESS.
  • -: A STA is steered in deauthentication mode or the device does not receive any BTM response.

Flag

Voice STA flag/Video STA flag/Active STA flag.

Result

Steering result of a STA.

  • Success: The steering is successful.
  • Success(NT): The steering is successful but the STA is not steered to the expected target.
  • Time Out: The steering times out.
  • Not Move: The steering is complete, but the STA is still associated with the source AP.
  • Failed: The steering fails. (The steering result does not meet the expectation. For example, the STA is not steered to the 5 GHz radio in the band steering scenario, is steered to an AP with poor signal quality in the smart roaming scenario, or is steered to a high-load AP in the load balancing scenario.)
  • Error(1) or Error(2): An internal error occurs during the steering.
