System Status Page

The status page has been designed to give the system administrator a detailed view of the

operation of the PTP 400 Series Bridge from both the wireless and network perspectives.

The page is subdivided into three main categories Equipment, Wireless and Ethernet/Internet.

The ‘Equipment’ section contains the entire unit’s inventory and identification information. The

‘Wireless’ section presents the key wireless metrics displayed as a series of measurements

and histograms. The ‘Ethernet/Internet’ section describes the unit’s network identity and

connectivity.

The status page can be configured to refresh itself at an operator defined rate (if the user is

logged in as system administrator). The refresh period defaults to 3600 seconds and can

easily be changed to refresh at any period between 2 seconds and 3600 seconds. Pressing

the ‘Update Page Refresh Period’ button causes a new page refresh period to be adopted by

the system. The page refresh mechanism uses a HTML Meta refresh command. Therefore

the refresh is always initiated by the local browser and not by the PTP 400 Series Bridge at

this interval.
