4. The Status is the current state of requests made from the applet. Requests are any “SET/GET”
operation from the applet. The Status field displays error messages if something goes wrong in the
transaction between the applet and the switch.
5. Click the Refresh button to refresh the virtual interface statistics. Status information is not polled to
the applet. Hence you have to refresh the switch to retrieve the data.
6. Click the Close button to exit the screen. Clicking Close does not lose any data, as there are no values
configured within this screen (it is read-only).
4.4.2.2 Viewing the Virtual Interface Statistics Graph
The switch Web UI continuously updates its virtual interface statistics, even when the graph is closed.
Periodically display the virtual statistics graph for the latest information as network performance information
is required.
To view a detailed graph for a selected interface:
1. Select a record from the table displayed in the Statistics screen.
2. Click the Graph button.
3. The Interface Statistics screen displays. The Interface Statistics screen provides the option of viewing
graphical statistics for the following:
• Input Bytes
• Input Pkts Dropped
• Output Pkts Total
• Output Pkts Error
• Input Pkts Total
• Input Pkts Error
• Output Pkts NUCast
• Input Pkts NUCast
• Output Bytes
• Output Pkts Dropped
Select any of the above parameters by clicking on the checkbox associated with it.
Output Unicast
Packets
Displays the number of unicast packets (packets directed towards
a single destination address) transmitted from the interface.
Output NonUnicast
Packets
Displays the number of unicast packets transmitted from the
interface.
Output Total Packets Displays the total number of packets transmitted from the
interface.
Output Packets
Dropped
Displays the number of transmitted packets dropped at the
interface. Output Packets Dropped are packets dropped when the
output queue of the physical device associated with interface is
saturated.
Output Packets Error Displays the number of transmitted packets with errors. Output
Packet Errors are the sum of all the output packet errors, malformed
packets and misaligned packets received on an interface.
