5. Device Status

The “Device Status” page allows viewing CPU/memory/flash usage and

monitoring statistics of the unit’s interfaces and radio wireless connections and

using the graphical “Antenna alignment” tool and performing radio link

performance tests and viewing the system log.

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

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

interface

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

receiving/transmitting

• Load (kbps) Rx/Tx – the data load of the interface in kilobits per second

• Load (pps) Rx/Tx – the data load of the interface in packets per second.

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
