Transferring Collected Data

SLV user history statistics and LMI packet capture data can be uploaded to an NMS or a Network Associates Sniffer using FTP, which is faster than other methods. The rate at which the data file is transferred is the rate set by the FTP Max Transfer Rate (Kbps) option (see Table 4-14,Telnet and FTP Session Options in Chapter 4, Configuration Options).

NOTES:

Use your NMS application to FTP and view transferred statistics and packet data; the data files are not in user-readable format. LMI packet capture data can also be viewed via the LMI Trace Log (see Viewing Captured Packets from the Menu-Driven User Interface in Chapter 8, Troubleshooting, for additional information).
