A network utilization of 40% is considered the maximum that a typical Ethernet-type network can experience before encountering performance difficulties. If you observe utilization that is consistently higher than 40% on any port, click on the Port Counters button to get a detailed set of counters for the port.

Maximum Activity Indicator: As the bars in the graph area change height to reflect the level of network activity on the corresponding port, they leave an outline to identify the maximum activity level that has been observed on the port.

To change the amount of bandwidth the Port Utilization bar graph

shows. Click on the bandwidth display control button in the upper left corner of the graph area. The button shows the current scale setting, such as 40%. From the drop-down list, select the bandwidth scale you want the graph to show (3%, 10%, 25%, 40%, 75%, or 100%), as shown in figure 3-7.
