Historical performance data

Historical performance data
This section lists the URIs for retrieving historical performance data for ports, switches, and flows
based on a measure:
• Port performance data can be retrieved in the context of a resource group or switch.
• Switch performance data can be retrieved in the context of a resource group or fabric.
• Traffic flow performance data can be retrieved in the context of a specific switch only.
Depending on the scope of the context, the relevant performance data is returned.
In the URIs, you can specify query parameters as shown in the following table.
• If all the parameters (duration, start date and end date) are provided, duration takes
precedence.
• If the duration is less than or equal to 0, then it will default to 3600 seconds unless the start
and end dates are specified.
• The start and end dates are long values.
• The response schema is PerformanceDataResponse
Port-related performance data URIs
The following table shows the mapping of the URIs to the specific measures.
