describes the fields and information displayed in the Device Info section. The displayed fields vary from
Description
Button above the Device Info section that, when pressed, immediately polls the individual AP or the
controller for a thin AP; this overrides the group's preset polling intervals to force an immediate update of
all data except for rogue information. Shows "attempt" status and last polling times.
Displays ability of AMP to connect to the AP. Up (no issue) means everything is working as it should. Down
(SNMP "get" failed) means AMP can get to the device but not speak with it using SNMP. Check the SNMP
credentials AMP is using the view secrets link on the APs/Devices > Manage page and verify SNMP is
enabled on the AP. Many APs ship with SNMP disabled. Down (ICMP ping failed after SNMP get failed)
means AMP is unable to connect to the AP using SNMP and is unable to ping the AP. This usually means
AMP is blocked from connecting to the AP or the AP needs to be rebooted or reset.
Good means all the settings on the AP agree with the settings AMP wants them to have. Mismatched
means there is a configuration mismatch between what is on the AP and what AMP wants to push to the
AP. The Mismatched link directs you to this specific APs/Devices > Audit page where each mismatch is
highlighted. Unknown means the device configuration has not yet been fetched (possible issue with
credentials). Verifying means it's fetching configuration to be compared to desired settings.
Displays the firmware version running on the AP.
Selecting this link opens a pop-up window that lists the licenses installed for this controller, and whether
they have expired.
Displays the controller for the associated AP device as a link. Select the link to display the APs/Devices >
Monitor page for that controller.
Specifies the mesh AP acting as the wired connection to the network.
Specifies whether the AP is a portal device or a mesh node. The portal device is connected to the network
over a wired connection. A node is a device downstream of the portal that uses wireless connections to
reach the portal device.
The name of the mesh device.
Selecting the Google Earth icon opens the mesh network view in Google Earth.
Displays the make and model of the device.
Displays the most recent time AMP has polled the AP for information. The polling interval can be set on the
Groups > Basic page.
Displays the amount of time since the AP has been rebooted. This is the amount of time the AP reports and
is not based on any connectivity with AMP.
Displays the MAC address of the Ethernet interface on the device.
Displays the serial number of the device.
Displays the serial number of the radios in the device. This field is not available for all APs.
Displays the SNMP location of the device.
Displays the SNMP contact of the device.
Displays the IP address that AMP uses to communicate to the device. This number is also a link to the AP
web interface. When the link is moused over a pop-up menu will appear allowing you to http, https, telnet
or SSH to the device.
