Statistics
Accessing MIB-II interface or RMON statistics from the Module View; available statistics windows
Each port menu in the 9H42x-xx Module View provides two statistics selections:
Statistics and I/F Statistics. Selecting the Statistics option will launch the highest
level of statistics available for the selected interface: if the interface supports
RMON, the RMON statistics window will display; if the interface does not
support RMON, or if the RMON Default MIB component has been
administratively disabled, the MIB-II I/F statistics window will display. Selecting
the I/F Statistics option will always display MIB-II interface statistics, regardless
of the level of RMON support available or the current administrative status of the
RMON Default MIB component.

Accessing the Statistics Windows

1. Click on the desired port button from the Module View window. The Port menu
will appear.
2. For RMON statistics (where available), click to select Statistics, and
release. The RMON Statistics (Figure 4-1) or MIB-II Interface Statistics
(Figure 4-3, page 4-7) window, as appropriate, will appear.
or
For MIB-II interface statistics, click to select I/F Statistics, and release. The
MIB-II Interface Statistics window (Figure 4-3, page 4-7) will appear.
TIP
Note that the MIB-II I/F Statistics window is also available for all port interfaces —
regardless of their level of RMON support or the current administrative status of the
RMON Default MIB component — via the I/F Summary window accessed from the
Device menu, and via the I/F Statistics option on the bridge Port menu in the Bridge
Status view. For more information about the I/F Summary window, see Chapter 2; for
more information about the Bridge Status view, see Chapter 5.
