Chapter 10 Interface Performance

Generic Interface Performance

Generic Interface Performance Window—Detailed Description

The Interface Performance window contains three tabs: Performance (1), Performance (2) and

Performance (3).

Performance (1) Tab

The Performance (1) tab (see Figure 10-1) contains three areas: General Information, Packets/Octets Statistics, and Performance Logging.

General Information

The General area contains the following fields:

Resets—Number of times the interface is internally reset.

Note Transmitted/Received Bandwidth Utilization will not be calculated and displayed until after a performance logging poll (15 minutes), and only if performance logging is active for the interface.

Transmitted Bandwidth Utilization—Percentage of transmitted bandwidth utilization. The percentage is calculated as packets per second divided by the speed of interface, averaged over the polling period (if performance polling is active).

Received Bandwidth Utilization—Percentage of received bandwidth utilization. The percentage is calculated as packets per second divided by the speed of interface, averaged over the polling period (if performance polling is active).

Packets/Octets Statistics

The Packets/Octets Statistics area contains the following fields:

In Octets—Total number of packets received on the interface, including framing characters.

Out Octets—Total number of packets transmitted out of the interface, including framing characters.

In Bits/sec—Five-minute exponentially decayed moving average of input bits per second.

Out Bits/sec—Five-minute exponentially decayed moving average of output bits per second.

In Packets/sec—Five-minute exponentially decayed moving average of input packets per second.

Out Packets/sec—Five-minute exponentially decayed moving average of output packets per second.

In Unicast Packets—Total number of packets received by the layer which were not addressed as multicast or broadcast.

Out Unicast Packets—Total number of packets transmitted by the layer which were not addressed as multicast or broadcast.

In Multicast Packets—Total number of packets received by this layer addressed as multicast

Out Multicast Packets—Total number of packets transmitted by this layer addressed as multicast

In Broadcast Packets—Total number of packets received by this layer which was broadcasted.

Out Broadcast Packets—Total number of packets transmitted by this layer which was broadcasted.
