Requested Status
This setting is useful for troubleshooting problems on your network. Up, the default setting, turns the
radio on for normal operation. Down turns the radio off.
The Current Status line under the setting displays the current status of the radio port. This field can also
display Error, meaning the port is operating but is in an error condition.
Packet Forwarding
This setting is always set to Enabled for normal operation. For troubleshooting, you might want to set
packet forwarding to Disabled, which prevents data from moving between the Ethernet and the radio.
The Forwarding State line under the setting displays the current forwarding state. For normal access
point operation, the forwarding state is Forwarding. Four other states are possible:
• Unknown—The state cannot be determined.
• Disabled—Forwarding capabilities are disabled.
• Blocking—The port is blocking transmission. This is the state when no stations are associated.
• Broken—This state reports radio failure.
