9.3 Diagnosis via the transceiver web interface
Additional diagnostic tools are accessible via the web interface.
To access the web interface, the following steps are necessary:
1. Set the IP address of the laptop to the same subnetwork of the transceiver (see project-specific documentation).
2. Connect the laptop to the transceiver (via Ethernet, directly or via the devices connected to the WLAN).
3. Open a suitable web browser. See compatibility list within the transceiver manufacturer's operating instructions.
4. Access the web interface of the transceiver via the IP address.
5. Log in with the login data (see project-specific documentation).
ATTENTION!
9.3.1 Functional limitations of the web interface
- Browser changes in the case of functional problems in the web interface.
If unforeseen behavior occurs in the web browser, it may help to change the browser.
- Firmware loading bar/ ConfigPack no progress.
With firmware 6.5.1: If a file is loaded into the WBM (Web-based Management: The configuration and diagnostic interface
of the WLAN devices, which can be accessed via a web browser), it may be that the transmission initially fails, but the file
is still transmitted and applied.
Whether the new firmware was actually loaded can be checked in the "Information" -> "Versions" menu in the "Firmware"
line. The previously loaded firmware version must be listed here.
Note: The line "Firmware running" represents the currently executed firmware version.
- Software limitations:
Siemens programs such as Proneta or SinecPNI use SNMP to query transceiver properties such as serial number,
firmware, hardware state and device names. If the SNMP interface of the transceivers is actively used, user-defined
access data is assigned that prevents this query. However, an attempted query of these tools is classified as "Incorrect
login" and therefore, after 10 failed attempts, the IP address is blocked for 60 minutes, i.e. the login is rejected with the
message "Username/Password incorrect". A device restart corrects the problem.

In case of malfunctions in the web interface (frozen progress bars, fault messages
from the interface) use different browsers or incognito mode!
Experience has shown that Microsoft Internet Explorer works most reliably.
