Our local installation in RASH consists of two Ubuntu 18.04 servers. One is installed as the Analysis and the other one is as the Test server. Both of the servers are located at the same place, in RASH datacenter. Since we have locally configured all the necessary components for WiFiMon to function, we can now monitor our Wi-Fi network on a daily basis. Our implementation of WiFimon gathers two types of data which respectively are: the gathered from the WiFi users (soft probe data) and the hardware probe data. In order to make all the right configuration for the hardware probe to function correctly you may follow the steps below:in the Hardware probe configuration

In our office we are using an old laptop that is serving as a hardware probe. It is set up according to the same steps for the Raspberry Pi hardware probe given above, . Since the distance between the hardware probe and the access points is important because of the signal attenuation and the impact of the physical obstacles we have decided to measure the case in which two components are in close range with each other in order to get maximum throughput. So the hardware probe and one of the access points that we are using are located in the same office and the real distance between them is approximately 2.5 meters. The other access point is located in another office and the distance between these devices is 7 meters with a thin wall between.
