Using Diagnostics Utilities
The STM provides diagnostic tools that help you analyze traffic conditions and the status of the
network. Two sets of tools are available:
• Network diagnostic tools. These tools include a ping utility, traceroute utility, and DNS
lookup utility.
• Traffic diagnostic tools. These tools allow you to perform real-time, per-protocol traffic
analysis between specific source and destination addresses and let you generate reports on
network usage in your network.
To display the Diagnostics screen, select Monitoring > Diagnostics from the menu. To facilitate
the explanation of the tools, the Diagnostics screen is divided and presented in this manual in three
figures (Figure 6-20 on page 6-41, Figure 6-21 on page 6-42, and Figure 6-22 on page 6-43).
Note: The report includes only quarantined spam e-mails that contain the e-mail
address that is specified in the Send to field.
Note: The report provides summary information such as time, sender, recipient,
subject, and size, and a retrieve link. The user can retrieve an individual
e-mail by clicking the retrieve link for the e-mail.
Note: For normal operation, diagnostic tools are not required.
