The Diagnostics Menu
The GUI’s diagnostics pages enable you to troubleshoot network problems and
observe traffic flow, including:
• displaying the number of good and bad packets received and
transmitted over each switch port
• displaying the number of frames related to 802.1x port authentication
received and transmitted over each authenticator and supplicant
• displaying the number and type of PPP packets received and
transmitted
• displaying the number and type of packets received and transmitted by
IP, and discarded by the IP gateway
• displaying the number and type of ICMP and UDP packets received
and transmitted
• displaying the number and type of RIP packets received and
transmitted; and the octets received and transmitted over each IP route
• displaying the number and type of IPX packets received and
transmitted; and the bytes received and transmitted over each IPX route
• displaying the number and type of DHCP messages received and
transmitted by the DHCP server
• displaying UPnP counters
• displaying Quality of Service counters
• displaying the contents of the router’s file system and how much
memory is used and available. You can also delete files
• an interface to the router’s command line interface, allowing you to
enter CLI commands.
Combining GUI and CLI Configuration
On the AR750S and AR750S-DP routers, the GUI makes it easier to configure
several features by using scenario-based wizards. For these features, the GUI
requires some configuration parameters to use particular values (for example,
firewall policy names). These features should be configured either with the
GUI or the CLI, but not both. In particular, you cannot configure these features
using the CLI and modify them using the GUI. These features are:
■ VPN tunnels
■ Firewall
For other features and protocols, and on AR725 and AR745 routers, you can
alternate between the GUI and the CLI without difficulty. Note that GUI pages
do not automatically refresh to reflect changes in the CLI configuration; you
must reload the relevant page (for example, by clicking the Refresh button on
your browser).
