Symbol Technologies AP-5131 Network Router User Manual


 
AP-5131 Introduction
1-17
For detailed information on available AP-5131 statistical displays and the values they represent, see
Monitoring Statistics on page 7-1.
1.2.18 Transmit Power Control
The AP-5131 has a configurable power level for each radio. This enables the network administrator
to define the antenna’s transmission power level in respect to the AP-5131’s placement or network
requirements as defined in the AP-5131 site survey.
For detailed information on setting the radio transmit power level, see Configuring the 802.11a or
802.11b/g Radio on page 5-48.
1.2.19 Advanced Event Logging Capability
The AP-5131 provides the capability for periodically logging system events. Logging events is useful
in assessing the throughput and performance of the AP-5131 or troubleshooting problems on the
AP-5131 managed Local Area Network (LAN).
For detailed information on AP-5131 events, see Logging Configuration on page 4-35.
1.2.20 Configuration File Import/Export Functionality
Configuration settings for an AP-5131 can be downloaded from the current configuration of another
AP-5131. This affords the administrator the opportunity to save the current configuration before
making significant changes or restoring the default configuration.
For detailed information on importing or exporting configuration files, see Importing/Exporting
Configurations on page 4-37.
1.2.21 Default Configuration Restoration
The AP-5131 has the ability to restore its default configuration or a partial default configuration with
the exception of current WAN and SNMP settings. Restoring the default configuration is a good way
to create new WLANs if the MUs the AP-5131 supports have been moved to different radio coverage
areas.
For detailed information on restoring a default or partial default configuration, see Configuring
System Settings on page 4-2.
