Understanding Types of Reports
Web NMS provides a variety of reports that help you in monitoring the performance of network elements. By default, the following reports are available in the Web Client.
Receive Traffic
Provides reports as Line Graph, Area Graph, and Tabular View for the number of packets received using one or more interfaces on the selected device.
Transmit Traffic
Provides reports as Line Graph, Area Graph, and Tabular View for the number of packets transmitted using one or more interfaces on the selected device.
Memory Utilization
Provides reports as Line Graph, Area Graph, and Tabular View for the amount of Memory utilized by the selected device.
CPU Utilization
Provides reports as Line Graph, Area Graph, and Tabular View for the percentage of CPU utilized by the selected device.
Rx Utilization (also called InterfaceInUtilization)
Provides reports as Line Graph, Area Graph, and Tabular View for the utilization of bandwidth while receiving packets using one or more interfaces on the selected device. This is calculated using the formula: Interface Rx utilization: (2.2.1.10*8*100)/(2.2.1.5 * pollInterval)
Tx Utilization (also called InterfaceOutUtilization)
Provides reports as Line Graph, Area Graph, and Tabular View for the utilization of bandwidth while transmitting packets using one or more interfaces on the selected device. This is calculated using the formula: Interface Tx utilization: (2.2.1.16*8*100)/(2.2.1.5 * pollInterval)
To view performance reports for a device
Click the device either from the map view or the list view..
Scroll down to see the links to various graph reports.
Click the required link, say INTERFACE_in_octets. The corresponding graph is displayed.
From the Customize Graph column on the right in this page, select the required graph. For example, select Receive Traffic from the combo-box
Click View Graph button to see the corresponding graph getting loaded in the graph display area.
Other Options in the Customize Graph column:
Scroll down to the Other Graphs section.
Select any particular graph to display the graph. The Customize Graph section is displayed next to the graph.
Select the Report from the drop down list.
Select the format in which you prefer to view the report from the View combo box. Default views available are Line Graph, and Area Graph.
The report can
be viewed for a specific period of time by configuring Period
combo box. You have option to view reports for the day (Today),
for a week (Past 7 Days), for
a month (Past 30 Days), or a specific
period of time (Custom). When
you choose Custom, you need to
specify the From and To
period. Click
and provide required month, date, and time
in the Date Input Helper that is
displayed.
Click on View Graph button to view customized graph.
If no data has been collected for the device, appropriate message is displayed conveying the same.
