Hello Experts,
What is the "show cli" on autonomous AP that could be used to see the RSSI with which a Wireless client/ WGB is associated?

"show dot11 association <mac_addr> " output should provide that info.

Thank you Rasika for your response. It helped.
""show dot11 association <mac_addr> " was not accepted as a valid cli on the IOS I was running on my AP, however "show dot11 associations all" helped obtained the RSSI of the associated clients.

"show dot11 association <mac_addr> " was not accepted as a valid cli on the IOS I was running on my AP.
I expected you to replace <mac_addr> section of that command with your client MAC address :)
So command to be issued like "show dot11 association 002c.c8b6.1c78"

//I expected you to replace <mac_addr> section of that command with your client MAC address :)//
That's fairly understood Rasika :). I meant the actual client mac address only :)

Is the RSSI visible with that command output measured on the AP or measured on the client?
I expect it to be measured on the AP and I wonder whether there is a way to check the client measured RSSI from the AP.

That you need to look at the client. I don't think it is reported back to the AP. Typically though (with end user clients) the AP hears the client better than the client hears the AP.
Also bear in mind, the real value (signal strength) is permanently adjusted by both sides depending on the quality in the newer standards. What you see measured are typically the beacons.
