4.2.3 Statistics
The Statistics webpage is used for advanced debugging of XYR 400E. This webpage details the
state of the XYR 400E and its performance in the system.
4.2.4 Network Traffic Analysis
There are many devices and PC programs that will analyse performance of an Ethernet network.
Freely available programs such as Ethereal provide a simple cost effective means for more
advanced analysis. By monitoring traffic on the wired Ethernet, a better idea of regular traffic can
be discovered.
Network Analysis programs make configuration of a filter for the XYR 400E a simple task.

Testing Radio Paths
The general procedure for radio range testing a link is fairly simple. Configure two units to form a
link using automatic radio rates. Install the Access Point at a fixed location. Take a laptop
computer and the Client to each of the remote locations, and analyse the link using the Connectivity
webpage. If a beacon is heard from the Access Point, the Client will update its Connectivity
webpage with the received signal strength of beacon messages from the Access Point.
