Viewing WAN Interface Status

The WAN Interface Status window displays the conÞguration of the synchronous and/or T1 ports on a BRIM-W6 or BRIM-WT1. This window has two port conÞguration sections Ð one for each WAN port on the device, whether it is synchronous or T1. You can use this window to determine which WAN port is the active port and set a port to be the primary port. You can also use the ConÞgure button to access the T-1 Port and Synchronous Port ConÞguration windows.

To open the WAN Interface Status window:

1.Click on Device on the Chassis View menu bar to access the Device menu.

2.Click on WAN Status and then on Physical View. The WAN Interface Status window, Figure 4-1, will appear.

Figure 4-1. WAN Interface Status Window

The WAN Interface Status window displays the following Þelds:

Type

Displays the type of WAN port: Synchronous or T1.

Current Active

Displays which WAN port is currently being used on the device. A check will appear in the box under Port 1 or Port 2.

Current Primary

Displays which port has been conÞgured to be the Primary port.
