NOTE: To apply your changes, click Update. Changing some access point settings
might cause the AP to stop and restart system processes. If this happens,
wireless clients will temporarily lose connectivity. We recommend that you
change access point settings when WLAN traffic is low.
If you enabled the Log Relay Host, clicking Update will activate remote logging. The access
point will send its kernel messages real-time for display to the remote log server monitor, a
specified kernel log file, or other storage, depending on how you configured the Log Relay
Host.
If you disabled the Log Relay Host, clicking Update will disable remote logging.

Viewing Transmit and Receive Statistics

The Transmit/Receive page provides some basic information about the current access point
and a real-time display of the transmit and receive statistics for the Ethernet interface on the
access point and for all VAPs on the radio interface (and for both radio interfaces on the DWL-
8500AP). All transmit and receive statistics shown are totals since the access point was last
started. If you reboot the AP, these figures indicate transmit and receive totals since the reboot.
