3.3.4 Diagnostic Tools
MAINTENANCE on Page 98
(See
The radio's Maintenance menu contains two tools that are especially
useful to network technicians—the Radio Test Menu and the Ping
Utility. The Radio Test selection allows for testing RF operation, while
the Ping Utility can be used to verify reachability to pieces of equipment
connected to the radio network. This includes transceivers and user-sup-
plied Ethernet devices.
3.4 Using Logged Operation Events
Event Log Menu on Page 87
(See
The transceiver's microprocessor monitors many operational parame-
ters and logs them as various classes of "events". If the event is one that
affects performance, it is an "alarmed". There are also normal or routine
events such as those marking the rebooting of the system, implementa-
tion of parameter changes and external access to the Management
System. Informational events are stored in temporary (RAM) memory
that will be lost in the absence of primary power, and Alarms will be
stored in permanent memory (Flash memory) until cleared by user
request. Table 2-5 summarizes these classifications.

These various events are stored in the transceiver's "Event Log" and can
be a valuable aid in troubleshooting unit problems or detecting attempts
at breaching network security.
