Lockout This field displays how many times the SM has been temporarily locked out
of making registration attempts.
RegFail This field displays how many registration attempts by this SM failed.
Range This field displays the distance in feet for this link. To derive the distance in
meters, multiply the value of this parameter by 0.3048.
MaxRange This field indicates the configured value for the AP’s Max Range parameter.
TxBER A 1 in this field indicates the AP is sending Radio BER.
Ebcast A 1 in this field indicates the AP or BHM is encrypting broadcast packets. A 0
indicates it is not.
Session Count This field displays how many sessions the SM (or BHS) has had with the AP
(or BHM). Typically, this is the sum of Reg Count and Re-Reg Count.
However, the result of internal calculation may display here as a value that
slightly differs from the sum.
In the case of a multipoint link, if the number of sessions is significantly
greater than the number for other SMs, then this may indicate a link problem
or an interference problem.
NoLUIDs This field indicates how many times the AP has needed to reject a
registration request from a SM because its capacity to make LUID
assignments is full. This then locks the SM out of making any valid attempt
for the next 15 minutes. It is extremely unlikely that a non-zero number
would be displayed here.
OutOfRange This field indicates how many times the AP has rejected a registration
request from a SM because the SM is a further distance away than the range
that is currently configured in the AP. This then locks the SM out of making
any valid attempt for the next 15 minutes.
AuthFail This field displays how many times authentication attempts from this SM
have failed in the AP.
EncryptFail This field displays how many times an encryption mismatch has occurred
between the SM and the AP.
Rescan Req This field displays how many times a re-range request has occurred for the
BHM that is being evaluated in the AP Eval page of a BHS.
SMLimitReached This field displays 0 if additional SMs may be registered to the AP. If a 1 is
displayed, the AP will not accept additional SM registrations.
NoVC’s This counter is incremented when the SM is registering to an AP which
determines that no VC resources are available for allocation. This could be a
primary data channel (a low priority data channel) or one of the other
possible data channel priorities (a Medium priority data channel, or High
priority data channel, or Ultra High priority data channel)
