How can an administrator determine the signal strength of a wireless NIC on a wireless network?

What will be an ideal response?

Wireless clients provided by the wireless network adapter vendor or a third party can be used. With their utilities, an administrator can determine important things like link state (whether the wireless device is connected) and signal strength (a measurement of how well the wireless device is connecting to other devices); an administrator can also configure items such as the wireless networking mode, security encryption, power-saving options, and so on.
