Link Fault Pass-Through (for Client/Slave mode only)
This function means if Ethernet port is link down, wireless connection will be forced to disconnect. Once
Ethernet link is recovered, AWK will try to connect to AP.
If wireless is disconnected, AWK restarts auto-negotiation on Ethernet port but always stays in the link failure
state. Once the wireless connection is recovered, AWK will try to recover the Ethernet link.
System log will indicate the link fault pass through events in addition to the original link up/down events.

Auto Warning Settings
Since industrial-grade devices are often located at the endpoints of a system, these devices will not always
know what is happening elsewhere on the network. This means that these devices, including wireless APs or
clients, must provide system maintainers with real-time alarm messages. Even when system administrators
are out of the control room for an extended period, they can still be informed of the status of devices almost
instantaneously when exceptions occur.
In addition to logging these events, the AWK-5232 supports different approaches to warn engineers
automatically, such as SNMP trap, e-mail, and relay output. It also supports two digital inputs to integrate
sensors into your system to automate alarms by email and relay output.
