3.Click the mouse to highlight your selection. The associated window will appear.

Each window is described in the following three sections.

The Station Statistics Window

The Station Statistics window (Figure 3-11) contains fields which allow you to configure the station port, and view performance and error statistics for the selected port.

By using the radio buttons located at the right of the Station Statistics window, you can choose whether to view the statistics gathered since the station was first inserted (Total), counted during the last polling interval (Delta), or accumulated from zero at a user-defined point (Cumulative). See Setting Total, Delta, or Cumulative Counts,page 3-1, for details.

Set the time interval to update information (from 1 second to 23 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds) by using the clock symbol at the bottom of the window. See Setting the Statistics Poll Interval, page 3-3, for details.
