Monitor Access Point Network Interfaces

Applies To: WatchGuard Cloud-managed Access Points (AP130, AP230W, AP330, AP332CR, AP430CR, AP432)

You can view the status of your access point network interfaces in WatchGuard Cloud.

Most access points have a single LAN interface, but some access point models have multiple interfaces that you can configure. For more information, go to Configure Access Point Network Interface Settings.

To monitor the network interfaces of your access point:

  1. Select Monitor > Devices.
  2. Select an access point or a folder that contains your access points.
  3. Select Live Status > Interfaces.
    The Interfaces page opens.

The Interfaces page for a specific access point includes this data:

  • Interfaces — The status and name of the interface. Some access point models have multiple interfaces and include uplink and additional LAN interfaces.
  • Link Speed — The detected link speed of the connection. For example, 1000 full or 10 half duplex.
  • VLAN — The VLAN ID of the interface if you configured tagged VLANs for your network interfaces. If there are no tagged VLANs configured, this shows Untagged VLAN.
  • Upload — The total amount of data uploaded by the interface.
  • Download — The total amount of data downloaded by the interface.

The Interfaces page for a folder of multiple access points includes this data:

  • Access Point — The name of the access point. Click the name for more detailed information about the access point interfaces.
  • Up — Indicates the interfaces that are current up and sending and receiving traffic.
  • Down — Indicates the interfaces that are currently down and not sending or receiving traffic.
