The Polling Interval option allows you to configure the way in which information is collected. If you make the polling interval smaller, you receive more accurate data at the expense of using more network resources. The objective is to use the ideal polling interval that provides accurate data using minimum network resources.

To change the polling interval, enter the number of minutes and seconds for the new polling interval in the min and sec fields.

*Note: The polling interval must be between 15 seconds and 59 minutes and 59 seconds.

*Note: The new polling interval takes effect when the device is next polled.

The Display Mode option allows you to select one of three display modes. Select a display mode using the radio buttons.

The display mode options are:

Last Interval Rate - The statistics gathered since the last poll.

Cumulative - The accumulated statistics gathered since the start of the session.

Session Average Rate - The average of the statistics per polling interval since the start of the session.
