In the screens in Figure 15, the top bar illustrates the alarm condition of the link. The information
inside the bar is equivalent to the entry of the Link Name set by the administrator in the
Administration Settings page (see Administration Settings Page on page 42).
The color of the panel indicates alarm status:
•
Green indicates the system is communicating and all functions are normal
•
Yellow indicates a minor non-traffic affecting alarm condition
•
Red indicates a major traffic affecting alarm condition
The left panel summarizes the alarm conditions of the local radio (the radio that matches the IP
address). The information displayed is the IP address and the endpoint identifier (Radio A or
Radio B). The right panel summarizes the alarm conditions of the remote radio (the radio linked
to the local radio).
The ‘local’ radio might be the near-end or the far-end radio
, depending on the
management interface connection. The terms local and remote refer to the
orientation of the radio terminals relative to the IP address you are managing.
When making certain changes to a near-end radio without first making changes to
the far-end radio, the link may become disconnected unless configuration changes
are reverted to their original settings. When making changes that may disrupt the
link,
always change the far-end radio first, and then the near-end radio to
match
.
The Summary Status Section allows the Exalt GUI to be a rudimentary management system.
Minimize the browser window to display just the top bar or the top bar and radio information,
and open several browsers on the desktop. When a window status changes to yellow or red, you
can quickly maximize that window to determine the issues.
