Interface Performance

This chapter describes how to view performance information for each of the interfaces on the Cisco 12000/10720 Routers you are managing, using the Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager application.

There are two performance options in Cisco 12000/10720 Router Manager: the Interface Performance windows and the Performance Manager application. Performance Manager displays historical data as well as current data in the form of a line chart, bar chart, or table; Interface Performance windows display only current data in a raw numerical format.

Note See Chapter 20, “Performance Management and Historical Data” for information on viewing historical performance information for a selected chassis, module, or interface using the Performance Manager.

This chapter contains the following information:

•Interfaces and Related Technology-Specific Windows

•Launching the Interface Performance Windows

•Generic Interface Performance

•SONET Interface Performance

•DS3/E3 Interface Performance

•Ethernet Interface Performance

•SRP Performance

•SRP Side Performance

Interfaces and Related Technology-Specific Windows

Interfaces on line cards can support multiple technologies. Performance windows are technology-specific. For example, a POS interface supports two technologies: Generic and SONET.

Therefore, to view the performance of a POS interface, you need to view two windows: the Generic Interface Performance window, and the SONET Interface Performance window.

This same process is applicable to all different types of interfaces: POS, DS-3, ATM, SRP or Ethernet.
