4G LTE or 5G Modem Network
The 4G LTE Modem Network or 5G Modem Network section indicates the current status of the 4G LTE or 5G connection for a Firebox with an LTE interface module or a Firebox with integrated 5G capabilities.
Modem Status
The first part indicates if the cellular modem is enabled or disabled in the configuration.
The second part indicates the status of the SIM card and cellular connection:
- Ready — A SIM card is installed, but not yet connected to the cellular network.
- Not Ready — A SIM card is not installed.
- Connected — A SIM card is installed and connected to the cellular network.
- Locked — The SIM card is locked by the manufacturer to prevent unauthorized use. A PIN is required to unlock the SIM card.
- Unlocked — A PIN has been successfully specified and the SIM card is unlocked, but not yet connected to the network.
You can unlock a SIM card in Fireware Web UI or Firebox System Manager. For more information, see 4G LTE and 5G Modem Status.
Modem IP
The IP address of the cellular modem.
Signal
The name of the cellular service provider and the signal strength of the cellular connection.
Firmware Version
The firmware version of the cellular modem.
Signal Status
Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP)
Indicates the received signal power in decibels per milliwatt (dBm).
Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ)
Indicates the ratio of the received signal power (RSRP) to all levels of signals on the same frequency in decibels (dB). A higher RSRQ value indicates a better signal to noise ratio.
Wireless
The Wireless section displays information for each wireless network and connected wireless clients. For more information, see Configure Firebox Wireless.
SSID
For each SSID, you can view this information:
Name
The name of the wireless network.
Sent
The number of bytes sent through the wireless network.
Received
The number of bytes received through the wireless network.
Total
The total number of bytes sent and received through the wireless network.
Clients
The number of clients currently connected to the wireless network.
Frequency Band
The frequency band on which the SSID is broadcast. (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, or both)
Wireless Clients
For each wireless client associated to an SSID on the Firebox, you can view this information:
MAC Address
The MAC address for the client device.
IP Address
The network IP address of the client device.
Host
The host name of the client device.
Sent
The number of bytes sent by the client device.
Received
The number of bytes received by the client device.
Radio
The wireless radio to which the client device is connected.
Signal Strength
The wireless signal power level of the wireless client.
Strong signal strength results in more reliable connections and higher speeds.
Signal strength is represented in -dBm format (0 to -100). This is the power ratio in decibels (dB) of the measured power referenced to one milliwatt.
The closer the value is to 0, the stronger the signal. For example, -40 dBm is better signal strength than -60 dBm.
