After the access point/bridge is initially configured, this is
the Home page that provides a summary of associated stations, system
events, and port status. The page also provides many links to pages
with detailed information.
Settings
Current Associations
The top section notes the number of associated stations in each
of four types: clients, repeaters, bridges, and access points. For
each type, the boxes show the number of associated stations out
of the total number of installed stations across the entire network.
Each box is also a link to the Association Table page for the station
type selected. For example, click on Clients: 1 of 1 to see
the Association Table page with only the clients displayed. Click
on the header Current Associations
to see the Association Table with all types displayed.
Recent Events
The middle section lists the most recent network events. The title
line Recent Events is a link to
the Event Log page where you see stored events along with display
filters and other related settings.
Time
The first column shows the time of the event expressed in system
uptime or wall-clock time. The upper right corner of every page
shows either wall-clock time (as configured in Time
Server Setup) or the current system uptime expressed in the
cumulative number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds of operation
since startup or reset.

This column notes the significance of the event. You can link to
the Event Log Summary screen
to see a tally of events at each security level.
