Monitor by Port

Access the Monitor by Port function by selecting the ALL Port/Porti, in which i= 1, 2, …, 8., as shown to the left selection bar. The Porti options are identical to the Monitor by System function discussed above, in that users can view graphs that show All Packets, TX Packets, RX Packets, or Error Packets activity, but in this case, only for an individual port. The All Ports option is essentially a graphical display of the individual port activity that can be viewed with the Console Monitor function discussed above. The All Ports option shows three vertical bars for each port. The height of the bar represents Packets/s for the type of packet, at the instant the bar is being viewed. That is, as time progresses, the height of the bar moves up or down so that the user can view the change in the rate of packet transmission. The red colored bar shows Uni-castpackets, the green colored bar shows Multi-castpackets, and the blue colored bar shows Broad-castpackets. The graph is updated every few seconds, allowing the user to analyze data transmission activity in real-time.
