NOTE: In a dual-LPA system, the Configure Remote Forward Gain page shows two values for the LPA
status, one for each LPA. Changing the LPA Mode or resetting the LPA applies to both LPAs at the
same time.
CAUTION! Should your system experience an LPA problem, refer to Table 8 to ensure that you apply new
settings or troubleshoot the correct RF Module.
CAUTION! If you use a customized SNMP polling for system status, you must change your LPA indexing
scheme.
