Critical Resources
The Critical Resources statistics screen displays a list of device IP addresses on the network
(gateways, routers etc.). These IP addresses are critical to the health of the network. These device
addresses are pinged regularly by managed access points. If there’s a connectivity issue, an event
is generated stating a critical resource is unavailable. Thus, each device’s VLAN, ping mode and
state is displayed for the administrator.
To review a selected access point’s critical resource statistics:
1. Select the Statistics menu from the Web UI.
2. Select System from the navigation pane (on the left-hand side of the screen). Expand a RF
Domain and select one of its connected access points.
3. Select Critical Resources.
