Three buttons at the bottom of this graph allow you to select the way in which
the data is represented (Total, Delta, and Accum). Another button, Clear,
works in conjunction with the Accum button. For more information on these
buttons, refer to the SPECTRUM Views.
Ethernet Segment Performance View
The Ethernet Segment Performance view displays a Multi-Attribute Line
Graph that provides a general indication of network activity for the Ethernet
backplane. The attributes displayed are pre-selected and use colors to
represent different statistics. The attributes are displayed as current values,
average values, and peak values. The peak values display the highest
statistical value reached since SPECTRUM began logging and the current
time, or the time at which the peak value was reached if one exists. The
SynOptics 5000 Ethernet Segment Performance view displays the foregoing
values for Load, Frame Rate, %Error, and %Collision.
Segment
Displays the number of the segment described in the view.
Monitored Segment
Displays a number indicating the segment to which the backplane is currently
connected and is monitoring.
Toggles the right axis of the graph between linear and logarithmic
representation.
Graph Properties
This field contains a button which toggles to the three following functions:
Scroll to Date-Time allows setting of the viewing area of the graph to begin at
a specified date and time. Change Time Scale allows specification of the Y axis
time scale for the graph. Data Logging allows logging of polled data in the
database.
Accesses the Segment Detail view, described previously in this section.
Token Ring Modules
Token Ring NMM (Network Management Module) modules have DCE (Data
Collection Engine) icons which display their Backplane Ring attachment and
current load on the monitored ring.
