IP Sessions
The SPEEDLAN 9200 firewall offers stateful packet filtering. IP Sessions allows you to
view sessions whose state is currently active. Choose IP Sessions from the
Forwarding menu. The following page will appear:
Figure 3-48: IP Sessions
This list includes IP sessions terminating or originating on this router, as well as any
forwarded sessions. It is recommended that you open the IP Sessions page after you
alter any firewall rules to verify that all sessions comply with the new rules. Existing
sessions that are not allowed by the new firewall rules will be terminated. You must
reboot the router to remove these types of sessions, or wait for them to finish.
Diagnostics Menu (Troubleshooting the Network)
Choose Diagnostics to troubleshoot network problems.
• Choose Statistics under the Diagnostics menu to view information about
inbound and outbound traffic for the interfaces (or routers).
• Choose ARP Table to locate systems on the LAN that are configured with
incorrect IP addresses.
• Choose ICMP Stats to view ICMP messages and errors between the host
servers and gateways.
Special Note about Link & Ping Tests:
Note: If you need to perform a link test to verify that your equipment is communicating
properly at the RF level, SPEEDView is an excellent tool. This process will help you with
the performance evaluation. For more information on how to perform a link test, see
The SPEEDManage User Guide. You can also perform a ping test if need.
