4. Device Status

The ―Device Status‖ page allows viewing statistics of the unit‘s interfaces,

monitor radio connections, use the graphical ―Antenna alignment‖ tool and

perform radio link performance tests.

The ―Interface Statistics‖ section displays the following parameters of all

available interfaces of the device:

Interface – the name of the interface

MAC Address – the MAC-address of the interface

Status – the status of the interface (Up, Down)

Mode – main working parameters currently used by the interface for its

operation

(Rx/Tx) Packets – the number of received/transmitted packets via the

interface

(Rx/Tx) Errors – the number of errors on the interface when

receiving/transmitting

The ―Wireless Links Statistics‖ section displays all neighboring devices which the

interface (RF or Pseudo-RF) of the given node is connected to. The following

radio link parameters are displayed:

Link Quality – indicates the quality of the link to a neighboring device:

green – the link has acceptable characteristics, yellow – the link has

significant problems, red – the link has unsatisfactory characteristics.

Neighbor – the neighbor‘s name

MAC Address – the neighbor‘s MAC address

Node ID – the sequential number of the neighboring node

Distance – the distance of the link

Transmit Power (dBm) Rx/Tx – transmit power values for remote/local

sides of the link in dBm

Control Level (dB) Rx/Tx – signal levels for receiving/transmitting (in dB)

measured relative to the minimum possible bitrate
