If you enable the traffic topology, the message box located at the bottom of the current topology prompts

you to start to monitor traffic on topology links.
Setting the refresh parameters of the traffic topology
The traffic topology does not support manual refresh. It uses a special automatic refreshing mechanism

that gradually increases the refresh interval to promptly show traffic changes with minimum impact to the

network performance. The refresh parameters include a minimum value, an increment value, and a
maximum value. When the traffic topology is enabled, it uses the minimum value for the first automatic

refreshing. The next refresh interval increases by the increment value until the refresh interval reaches the

maximum value.
To set the automatic refresh parameters:

1.

Open file systemDefine.xml in notepad at the \client\conf\perf\trafficTopo directory in the IMC
installation path.

2.

Configure the minimum refresh interval in seconds, in the range of 5 to 300. The default is 30.

<refreshInervalMin>30</refreshInervalMin>

3.

Configure the increment value in seconds, in the range of 0 to 60. The default is 30.

<refreshInervalIncr>30</refreshInervalIncr>

4.

Configure the maximum refresh interval in seconds, in the range of 60 to 600. The default is 300.

<refreshInervalMax>300</refreshInervalMax>

5.

Save and close the file.

6.

Restart the Web browser.
