Interface Statistics

The interface I/F Statistics window (Figure 3-3) provides MIB-II interface statistical information — including counts for both transmit and receive packets, and error and buffering information — for the front panel interfaces on the SmartSwitch 6000 or Matrix E7 series chassis. Color-coded pie charts in the middle of the window let you graphically view statistics for Unicast, Non-Unicast, Discarded and Error packets.

Remember, this window can always be launched from the I/F Statistics option on the

TIP Device View port menus; it may also be launched from the Statistics option if the selected interface does not support RMON or if the RMON Default MIB component has been administratively disabled. This window is also available for all port interfaces via the I/F Summary window (described in Chapter 2, The Device View) or the Bridge Port menus in the Bridge Status view (see the Element Manager Tools Guide).

To access the interface’s I/F Statistics window:

1.In the Device View window, click on the appropriate port interface to display the Port menu.

2.Click on I/F Statistics. The MIB-II I/F Statistics window will appear.
