Using Diagnostic Pages
Click the Network link at the top of any main management system page to reach
the Network Ports page, or click Network Ports on the Summary Status home
page.
The Network Diagnostics link at the top of the Network Ports page leads to the
Cisco Network Diagnostics page, where you can select diagnostic tests.
The Network Ports table is divided into three sections: identifying information
and status, data received, and data transmitted. Each row in the table is described
below.
Identifying Information and Status
• Name—Displays the name of the network interface port. An asterisk (*) next
to the name identifies the port as the primary port for the access point.
The port names are links to a detailed page for each port. See the “Ethernet
Port Page” section on page 9-9 for information on the Ethernet Port page and
the “AP Radio Page” section on page 9-12 for information on the AP Radio
Port page.
• Status—Displays one of three possible operating states for the port:
– Up—The port is operating properly.
– Down—The port is not operating.
– Error—The port is operating but is in an error condition.
• Max. Mb/s—The maximum rate of data transmission in megabits per second.
• IP Addr.—The IP address for the port. When the access point is set up in
standby mode the Ethernet and radio ports use different IP addresses. Use the
AP Radio Identification page to assign an IP address to the radio port that is
different from the Ethernet IP address. See the “Settings on the AP Radio
Identification Page” section on page 3-19 for details on the AP Radio
Identification page.
• MAC (Media Access Control) Addr.—The Media Access Control (MAC)
address is a unique identifier assigned to the network interface by the
manufacturer.
• Radio SSID—A unique identifier that client devices use to associate with the
access point. The SSID helps client devices distinguish between multiple
wireless networks in the same vicinity.
