Event is triggered when…

System warm start

The IE-WL-BL-AP-CL is rebooted, such as when its settings are
changed (IP address, subnet mask, etc.).

System cold start

The IE-WL-BL-AP-CL is rebooted by power down.

Watchdog triggers reboot

The IE-WL-BL-AP-CL is rebooted by watchdog

Network-related events

Event is triggered when…

LAN link on

The LAN port is connected to a device or network.

LAN link off

The port is disconnected (e.g., the cable is pulled out, or the
opposing device shuts down).

Client joined/ left
(for AP/Master mode)

A wireless client is associated or disassociated.

WLAN connected to AP
(for Client/Slave mode)

The IE-WL-BL-AP-CL is associated with an AP.

WLAN disconnected
(for Client/Slave mode)

The IE-WL-BL-AP-CL is disassociated from an AP.

RSTP changed

The RSTP topology has changed

RSTP new root bridge ID

The RSTP changes its root bridge ID

Client Roaming from previous AP to
current AP (for Client/Slave mode)

A client roams from a previous AP to the current AP if the signal
strength of the current AP is greater than the previous AP by a
certain value.

IP address conflict

The IE-WL-BL-AP-CL has the same IP address as another device
connected to the same subnet.

Link fault pass-through LAN/WLAN
connected because of WLAN/LAN up

The WLAN/LAN link is up and the Link fault pass-through (LFPT)
enables the LAN/WLAN functionality.

Link fault pass-through LAN/WLAN
disconnected because of WLAN/LAN down

The WLAN/LAN link is down and the Link fault pass-through (LFPT)
disables the LAN/WLAN functionality.

Channel availability check over DFS
frequency (for AP/Master mode)

The channel availability check (CAC) is started on channel
[channel] at [frequency] GHz for 60 sec./
