Warnings and Notes

These are how warnings and notes are shown in this User’s Guide.

Warnings tell you about things that could harm you or your

device.

Note: Notes tell you other important information (for example, other things you may

need to configure or helpful tips) or recommendations.

Syntax Conventions

• The product in this book may be referred to as the “NWA”, the “device” or the

“system” in this User’s Guide.

• Product labels, screen names, field labels and field choices are all in bold font.

• A key stroke is denoted by square brackets and uppercase text, for example,

[ENTER] means the “enter” or “return” key on your keyboard.

• “Enter” means for you to type one or more characters and then press the

[ENTER] key. “Select” or “choose” means for you to use one of the predefined

choices.

• A right angle bracket ( > ) within a screen name denotes a mouse click. For

example, Maintenance > Status > Show Statistics means you first click

Maintenance in the navigation panel, then the Status sub menu and finally

the Show Statistics button to get to that screen.

• Units of measurement may denote the “metric” value or the “scientific” value.

For example, “k” for kilo may denote “1000” or “1024”, “M” for mega may

denote “1000000” or “1048576” and so on.

• “e.g.,” is a shorthand for “for instance”, and “i.e.,” means “that is” or “in other

words”.

• Screens reproduced here for demonstration purposes may not exactly match

the screens on your device.
