CHAPTER 23
Maintenance
23.1 Overview
This chapter describes the maintenance screens. It discusses how you can view
the association list and channel usage, upload new firmware, manage
configuration and restart your NWA without turning it off and on.
23.2 What You Can Do in the Maintenance
Screens
The following is a list of the maintenance screens you can configure on the NWA.
•Use the Status screen (Section 23.4 on page 266) to monitor your NWA. Note
that these labels are READ-ONLY and are meant to be used for diagnostic
purposes.
•Use the Show Statistics screen (Section 23.4.1 on page 266) to access read-
only information such as port status, packet specific statistics and bridge link
status. Also provided are "system up time" and "poll interval(s)".
•Use the Association List screen (Section 23.5 on page 268) to view the
wireless stations that are currently associated with the NWA.
•Use the Channel Usage screen (Section 23.6 on page 269) to view whether a
channel is used by another wireless network or not. If a channel is being used,
you should select a channel removed from it by five channels to completely
avoid overlap.
•Use the F/W Upload screen (Section 23.7 on page 270) to upload the latest
firmware for your NWA.
•Use the Configuration screen (Section 23.8 on page 272) to view information
related to factory defaults, backup configuration, and restoring configuration.
•Use Restart screen (Section 23.9 on page 274) to reboot the NWA without
turning the power off.
