Its basic function is similar to tcpdump, Wireshark or Kismet, but itâ€™s much smaller and shows different, aggregated information which is not easily available from other tools. It is mainly targeted at debugging wireless LANs with a focus on ad-hoc (IBSS) mode in larger mesh networks.		:"horst" is a small, lightweight IEEE802.11 wireless LAN analyzer with a text interface.

			[[File:Screenshot of Ubiquiti AirView Spectrum Analyzer.png\|thumb\|The Ubiquiti AirView Spectrum Analyzer running on a Bullet M5]]

			This is a non-libre tool that comes with Ubiquiti's AirOS (that all of their routers run).

			It can show both real time and averaged views of power levels (in dBm) plus a waterfall diagram view.

			For the Ubiquiti Bullet M5, it operates at frequencies from 4.9 to 6.4 ghz.

			It is a Java Web Start tool. Runs fine on Linux.
