To show all Fluidmesh wireless access points (APs) in the displayed radio
spectrum, do the following steps:
1. Click the Show AP button on the upper right-hand corner of the
Spectrum Graph window.
• An icon representing each available access point will be
shown on the Spectrum Graph window.
2. To see detailed information for an access point, hover the mouse
cursor over the access point icon.
• The SSID number, MAC address and signal strength will
be shown for the chosen AP.
To see detailed information for the signal quality at each point in the
displayed frequency spectrum, click the Show Chan Quality button on
the upper right-hand corner of the Spectrum Graph window.
• A series of vertical bars will be shown for each occupied channel.
• Green bars indicate high signal quality. Yellow bars indicate falling
quality. If a bar is red, there is excessive signal noise at that
frequency.
To close the Spectrum Graph web page, click the Close Window
button on the upper right-hand corner of the Spectrum Graph window.
7.5. Network control
7.5.1. Ping softdog
The PING SOFTDOG window contains controls to set up a constant
series of pings to one or more IP addresses.
If connectivity is lost between the unit and any of the saved IP addresses,
an option can also be set to automatically reboot the Cisco FM3200 Endo.
TIP
As well as being a fail-safe mechanism to monitor network
connectivity, the constant ping can also be used as a 'keep-
alive' message to devices that need uninterrupted connectivity,
such as VoIP telephones.
To use the constant ping and automatic reboot functions, do the following
steps:
1. Click the -ping softdog link under NETWORK CONTROL in the
left-hand settings menu.
• The PING SOFTDOG dialog will be shown (Figure 27
(page 70)).
