For R770 APs running firmware version 7.0.0.104.1274 or later, load‑balancing and client‑steering activity generates additional event entries, including:

• Client BTM Request Sent: This event is logged when an AP attempts to steer a client to a neighboring AP for load balancing or sticky client steering.
• Client BTM Response Received: This event is logged when the AP receives a BSS Transition Management (BTM) response from a client that it previously attempted to steer to a neighboring AP for load balancing or sticky client steering.
• Client Disassoc by CLB: This event is logged when the AP disassociates a client due to a load‑balancing or sticky client‑steering operation. This event occurs when a disassociation request is sent to a non‑11v‑capable client to move the client to a better AP.
