Task 10: Monitoring the AP-SM Link
Monitoring the AP-SM Link
After the SM installer has configured the link, either an operator in the network office or the SM installer in the
field (if read access to the AP is available to the installer) should perform the following procedure. Who is
authorized and able to do this may depend on local operator password policy, management VLAN setup, and
operational practices.
To monitor the AP-SM link for performance, proceed as follows:
1
Access the web interface of the AP
2
In the left-side menu of the AP interface, select
Home
.
3
Click the
Session Status
tab.
Figure 21
AP Session Status page
4
Find the
Session Count
line under the MAC address of the SM.
5
Check and note the values for
Session Count
,
Reg Count
, and
Re-Reg Count
.
6
Briefly monitor these values, occasionally refreshing this page by clicking another tab and then the
Session Status tab again.
7
If these values are low (for example, 1, 1, and 0, respectively, meaning that the SM registered and
started a stable session once) and are not changing
consider the installation successful.
monitor these values from the network office over the next several hours and days.
If these values are greater than 1, 1, and 0, or they increase while you are monitoring them,
troubleshoot the link. (For example, Use
Receive Power Level
for aiming and then use Link Tests to
confirm alignment).
