Indicates that the configuration information is corrupted for some unspecified reason. In this
case the access point will automatically reset the default values and restart. Put the Access
Point into learn mode and reconfigure.

011001: Bad manufacturer's information

Indicates that the internal configuration information has been corrupted. Contact dealer.

011010: Bad log sector

Indicates that the log information in the flash memory has been corrupted. In this case the Nokia
A032 will automatically restore an empty log file. The original log and NID name information will
be lost but the unit will proceed with initialization. Reenter NID List and WEP information before
continuing.

011011: System error

Indicates failure of initialization due to an unknown cause. Power down and then power up
Access Point again. If the error re-occurs the unit must be returned to the dealer for repair.

USING THE INITIALIZATION LOG FILE

The Initialization log file keeps a record of each time the Nokia A032 is restarted. You can use it to
diagnose start-up problems.

During initialization, as each part of the system is started, entries are made in the log. If the startup is
successful the resulting log file changes are written into the flash memory as a record of the event.

The log file can hold data from approximately 30 restarts. After this the oldest entries are overwritten
by new entries. To keep a more permanent record, upload the log file periodically using TFTP and
save it to disk – see Using the TFTP wireless station program in the Nokia A032 Wireless LAN Access
Point User Guide
or the A032_User_Guide.pdf file.

The log file shows the following information:

The first line of an entry shows the time at the restart and records the version of Nokia A032
software (in this case 3.00). The next lines show the LAN port is initialized after which the unit is
operating normally.
