Figure 73. AODV statistics window.
The
AODV
tab, shown in Figure 73, provides statistical information regarding the link
quality between all SpeedNet ME Radios within wireless communication range of the
local SpeedNet ME Radio. The
AODV Statistics
tab is only active when the AODV
ad-hoc routing protocol has been enabled on the
Ad Hoc Routing
tab of the IP Routing
configuration page.
The Neighbor List provides a list of SpeedNet ME Radios that are communicating
wirelessly with the local SpeedNet ME Radio. The Neighbor List is updated each time a
Hello message is received from another SpeedNet ME Radio.
•
IP Address
—The
IP Address
field provides the IP address of the wireless interface of
a SpeedNet ME Radios whose Hello message has been received by the local SpeedNet
ME Radio.
•
Link
—This provides a measurement of the local SpeedNet ME Radio signal strength as
measured by the remote SpeedNet ME Radio, specified by the IP address above, that
sent the Hello message. This is used to ensure that only bidirectional links are used
for routing wireless data packets. A bidirectional link will show both Link and Reverse
Link signal strengths in this Neighbor List. A unidirectional link is indicated when Hello
beacons are received from a remote SpeedNet ME Radio that do not contain the local
radio’s IP address and corresponding measurement of the local radio’s received signal
strength as received at the remote radio. A unidirectional link will not have a Link entry
in this Neighbor List.
•
Reverse Link
—This provides a measurement of the signal strength of the last Hello
message that was received from the SpeedNet ME Radio. The Reverse Link measurement is
provided in dBm.
