Alarm
Meaning
Aux Port Configuration Mismatch Ethernet fragments (runt packets) have been detected
when the Aux port is in full duplex. This indicates an auto-
negotiation or forced configuration mismatch.
Aux Port Disabled Warning
The Aux port link has been administratively disabled via
the SNMP Interface.
Aux Port PoE Output Status
The Aux port link is down. The most likely cause is that the
unit has no Ethernet cable plugged into its Aux port.
Aux Port Status
The Aux port link is down. The most likely cause is that the
unit has no Ethernet cable plugged into its Aux port.
Cable Diagnostics Warning
“
Test In Progress
“ means that the Cable Diagnostics
test has been initiated on one or more ports and is in
progress.
Capacity Variant Mismatch
The link ends are different capability variants. This is not
applicable for PTP 670.
Data Bridging Status
This alarm depends on Lowest Data Modulation Mode.
“
Disabled
” means that the link has stopped bridging
Ethernet frames because the Lowest Data Modulation
Mode is not being achieved or because the wireless link is
down.
Second Data Bridging Status
This alarm depends on Lowest Second Data Modulation
Mode.
“
Disabled
” means that the link has stopped bridging
Ethernet frames because the Lowest Second Data
Modulation Mode is not being achieved or because the
wireless link is down.
Install Status
Signaling was received with the wrong MAC address. It is
very unusual to detect this, because units with wrongly
configured Target MAC Address will normally fail to
establish a wireless link. However, rare circumstances may
establish a partial wireless link and detect this situation.
Install Arm State
A wireless unit is in installation mode. After installation,
the wireless unit should be disarmed. This will increase the
data-carrying capacity and stop the installation tone
generator. The wireless link is disarmed from the
“Installation” process, see
Incompatible Regulatory Bands
The two linked units have different Regulatory Bands. To
clear this alarm, obtain and install license keys for the
correct country and select the same Regulatory Band at
each end of the link.
