How to tell if the WAN ports are not working?

2024-05-21 16:18:04

Model: ER7206 (TL-ER7206)

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.4.1

I want to set up alarms if one or more of my WAN connections goes off line.

I have set up a network management tool that can query SNMP and I have that working with the router.

What level of alerts appear when the connection is degraded or offline?

How do I identify the SFP port and the WAN port?

Any suggestions about how to make that work well? Any "gotchas"?

Thanks in advance

Hi @LeadershipGeek

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

You may take a look at the KB we have: ER7206 & SNMP

We cannot detect the degradation of your WAN. It should be only online or offline with two statuses.
