Showing Port Statistics
You can display standard statistics on network traffic from the
Interfaces Group and Ethernet-like MIBs, as well as a detailed
breakdown of traffic based on the RMOM MIB. Interfaces and
Ethernet-like statistics display errors on the traffic passing through
each port. This information can be used to identify potential
problems with the switch (such as a faulty port or unusually heavy
loading). RMON statistics provide access to a broad range of
statistics, including a total count of different frame types and sizes
passing through each port. All values displayed have been
accumulated since the last system reboot, and are shown as counts
per second. Statistics are refreshed every 60 seconds by de fault.
Note: RMON groups 2, 3 and 9 can only be accessed using SNMP
management software such as EliteView.
