The Network Interface Performance Reports menu item displays the user copy of the performance data. The T1 ESF CSU ACE maintains this performance data on the network in compliance with ANSI T1.403 and AT&T document TR54016. The data displayed is data accumulated over the last 15 minutes and over the last 24 hours.

Figure 3-10. First Menu of NI PERF RPTS Menu

These fields cannot be edited, only cleared, as previously discussed. Only the user copy of the performance data is cleared. The network management performance data history remains unaffected.

Separate carrier totals are kept which can only be retrieved and reset from the network.

Data Values

Figure 3-11. Performance Counter Screen

The counters used in the performance screens are defined below.
