Chapter 8 Working with Linksets
Viewing 
| Field or Button | Description | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| Received Utilization | Displays the average Receive Utilization % for all links on the linkset as a | 
| Chart | function of time, and optionally the Receive Utilization % for up to 16 | 
| 
 | individual links on the linkset. | 
| 
 | To see the exact time and data coordinates for a data point,  | 
| 
 | point. The coordinates are displayed in the format (hh:mm:ss, dd.dd), where: | 
| 
 | • hh:mm:ss is the time for that data point in hours, minutes, and seconds. | 
| 
 | • dd.dd is the receive utilization percentage for that data point. | 
| 
 | Note For serial and HSL links on Cisco 7507 and 7513 series routers, the | 
| 
 | displayed utilization data can vary by up to 5% from the actual | 
| 
 | |
| 
 | This variance results from the synchronization of Layer 2 counters | 
| 
 | between the Versatile Interface Processor (VIP) CPU and the Route | 
| 
 | Switch Processor (RSP) CPU on 7500 series routers. This variance | 
| 
 | does not occur for links on Cisco 2600, 7200, or 7300 series routers. | 
| 
 | To remove the data for a link or for the average from the chart, click the icon | 
| 
 | in the SLC field. To return the data to the chart, click the icon again. | 
| 
 | The total time displayed in the chart is specified in the Time Window (mins) | 
| 
 | field. | 
| 
 | New data points are added to the right side of the chart. When the chart | 
| 
 | reaches the end of the time window (for example, after 5 minutes, if the Time | 
| 
 | Window (mins) field is set to 5), new data points continue to be added to the | 
| 
 | right side of the chart, while old data points “drop off” the left side of the | 
| 
 | chart. | 
| 
 | If a poll is missed (for example, as a result of an SNMP timeout), SGM | 
| 
 | ignores the missing data point, stops drawing the line, and waits for the next | 
| 
 | valid data point to begin drawing the line again. | 
| 
 | To scroll left, right, up, or down in the chart, drag the cursor while holding | 
| 
 | down Ctrl and the left mouse button. | 
| 
 | To zoom in on a section of the chart, drag the cursor while holding down Shift | 
| 
 | and the left mouse button. | 
| 
 | To reset the chart to the default view and scaling, click Reset. |
