Management
Embedded Web Server
There is no specialized software to install on your PC to configure, manage, or maintain
your Motorola Netopia® Gateway. Web pages embedded in the operating system provide
access to the following Gateway operations:
• Setup
• System and security logs
• Diagnostics functions
Once you have removed your Motorola Netopia® Gateway from its packing container and
powered the unit up, use any LAN attached PC or workstation running a common web
browser application to configure and monitor the Gateway.
Diagnostics
In addition to the Gateway’s visual LED indicator lights, you can run an extensive set of
diagnostic tools from your Web browser.
Two of the facilities are:
• Automated “Multi-Layer” Test
The Run Diagnostics link initiates a sequence of tests. They examine the entire
functionality of the Gateway, from the physical connections to the data traffic.
• Network Test Tools
Three test tools to determine network reachability are available:
Ping - tests the “reachability” of a particular network destination by sending an ICMP
echo request and waiting for a reply.
NSLookup - converts a domain name to its IP address and vice versa.
TraceRoute - displays the path to a destination by showing the number of hops and the
Gateway addresses of these hops.
The system log also provides diagnostic information.
