    Foundry AR-Series AR1202 and AR1204 Installation Guide Ethernet Configuration Tip To avoid Ethernet mismatch problems, the AR1202 and AR1204 router and the network device to which it is attached should both be configured identically for speed and duplex. For example, if the router is configured for auto-negotiation and the far end is configured manually, the router detects the speed, but defaults to half-duplex mode.

    WAN Statistics In addition to WAN status and alarms, the router collects and stores various types of performance statistics. This data helps you analyze the quality of a WAN link between the AR1202 and AR1204 router and the far-end WAN equipment.

  • Page 52: Network Tests

    To isolate problems with a faulty WAN link, perform line or payload loopbacks at either end of the link and perform a BERT test. These functions isolate a problem to either the AR1202 and AR1204, far-end equipment, interconnect cabling at either end, or the link between the two systems.
