Description

A text description of the interface: Host (for the 7X00 Controller ModuleÕs two backplane interfaces); FDDI, Ethernet (for both standard and Fast Ethernet front panel interfaces), and ATM.

Physical Status

Logical Status

Displays the current logical status Ñ or administrative state Ñ of the interface: Up or Down.

Interface Performance Statistics/Bar Graphs

The statistical values (and, where available, the accompanying bar graphs) to the right of the interface description Þelds provide a quick summary of interface performance. You can select the statistical value you want to display and the units in which you want those values displayed by using the two menu Þelds directly above the interface display area, as follows:

1.In the right-most menu field, click on the down arrow and select the unit in which you wish to display the selected statistic: Load, Raw Counts, or Rate.

NOTE

Bar graphs are only available when Load is the selected base unit; if you select Raw Counts or Rate, the Bar Graph column will be removed from the interface display.

2.Once you have selected the base unit, click on the down arrow in the left-most field to specify the statistic you’d like to display. Note that the options available from this menu will vary depending on the base unit you have selected.

After you select a new display mode, the statistics (and graphs, where applicable) will refresh to reßect the current choice, as described below.

Raw Counts
