52 Avaya 1010/1020 User Guide
Viewing Recent Configuration Changes
As an aid to troubleshooting issues that you may encounter with your Avaya system or to
quickly access a preference that has been recently changed, view the preferences in
Administrator Preferences : Recent. Preferences that have dependencies on other
preference settings may not appear in Recent.
Note: Upgrading the system software removes all preferences from the Recent screen.
Using Diagnostics Preferences and Tools
Diagnostic preferences and tools that are available to all users include high-definition
camera preferences and a system reboot option. For information about using these
preferences and tools, refer to “Using Camera Diagnostic Preferences” on page 31.
Administrators can access these preferences and tools through User Preferences or
Administrator Preferences : Diagnostics.
Note: In the web administration interface, to view the effect of changes made to camera
diagnostic preferences on the Diagnostics : Cameras page, click Save Changes
and then Refresh.
Diagnostic preferences and tools available only to administrators in Administrator
Preferences : Diagnostics include call counter statistics, color bar settings, and network
utilities.

Using Network Utilities

You can troubleshoot network connection issues with your system using the ping and
traceroute utilities in Administrator Preferences : Diagnostics: Network Utilities. The
ping command tests responsiveness between two devices. The traceroute command tests
responsiveness and traces the path of a packet from one device to the other.

Rebooting the System

The system reboots when you do any of the following:
Reboot the system (Administrator Preferences or User Preferences : Diagnostics :
System Reboot).
Reset the system to its default state (Administrator Preferences : System : System
Reset).
Restore a system configuration using System Restore in the web administration
interface (Preferences : System : System Reset : System Restore).
Change the VLAN Tag preference (Administrator Preferences : Network : General).
