Reading the Performance Gauges

The performance gauges display statistical information about the selected device. By looking at the gauges, you can quickly determine if there are problems with the network utilization, collisions, the number of broadcasts per second, or the number of error packets. The gauges are refreshed every five seconds.

The information shown for hubs is for all ports on the device. You can obtain information for each port by selecting the Performance Gauges button, then selecting an individual port from the drop down list. If you want to monitor a different attribute for that port, just select the desired attribute from the drop down list below the port number.

The following table explains the attributes and gives their threshold settings on a per port basis for hubs. These settings cannot be changed. You can view an attribute value for all the ports of a device by selecting All Ports from the drop down list above the attribute. For the switching hubs, you can also select a segment from the drop down list.
