The 9H42x-xx Module View

Host interfaces and the backplane INB interface), and ethernet-csmacd(for both standard and Fast Ethernet front panel interfaces, and the backplane SMB 10 management interface).

Description

A text description of the interface: SMB 1 and SMB 10 (for the MMAC-Plus backplane management interfaces); Host (for the module’s two internal host interfaces); INB (for the INB backplane interface), and Ethernet (for both standard and Fast Ethernet front panel interfaces).

P. Sta

Displays the current physical status — or operational state — of the interface: Online or Offline.

L. Sta

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

Interface Performance Statistics/Bar Graphs

The statistical values and accompanying bar graphs to the right of the interface description fields 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 buttons directly above the graphs, as follows:

1.Click on the right menu button to select the unit in which you wish to display

the selected statistic: , , or .

2.Once you have selected the base units, click on the left menu button to specify the statistic you’d like to display. (The options from this menu will vary depending on the base units you have selected.)

After you select a new display mode, the statistics and graphs will refresh to reflect the current choice, as described below.

NOTE

Bar graphs are only available when Load is the selected base unit.

Raw Counts
