WLAN statistics are cumulative from boot or from the last time the statisti
cs were reset. The
statistics return the following information about the number of transmitted and received
RTP packets:.
RX packets The number of RTP packets received.
RX bytes The total number of bytes in the received RTP packets
RX dropped The number of received RTP packets dropped.
TX packets The number of RTP packets sent.
TX bytes The total number of bytes in the sent RTP packets
TX dropped The number of sent RTP packets dropped.
Performing a WLAN Test
The following example illustrate how to use the handset web interface to check various
statistics that m

Ping
Ping is used to test whether or not a host on an I

the round-trip time for messages sent from the originating host to a destination such as an
IP PBX, Unite server, router or a handset.
To run Ping, select Ping from the To
ols pane and enter the IP address of the destination. The
results of the ping is statistical summary of the response packet received and the round-trip
time taken for the packet in the message to be sent and received. For example:
Reply from ::ffff:10.30.32.166: bytes=32 time=28ms TTL=127
The destination IP is pinged ten times.
The following output indicates that the d
