Configuring the Performance Graph

To configure the Performance Graphs:

1.Click on Collisions to display the error mode menu.

2.Drag to select the desired errors mode. The error mode you have chosen will appear on the face of the button; the Performance Graph will refresh to zero and begin to measure using the new mode.

3.Click on Packets to display the packet mode menu.

4.Drag to select the desired packets mode. The packets mode you have chosen will appear on the face of the button; the Performance Graph will refresh to zero and begin to measure using the new mode.

The Performance Graph will now monitor the traffic passing through your IRM2 as a whole or the selected board or port using the user-defined modes. To stop monitoring and to exit the window, click Cancel.
