Interpreting the Statistics

■

The Utilization graph scales automatically to display the percentage of
bandwidth used on the port over the last hour and last 48 hours:

■

A bandwidth utilization of 0–25% indicates that the port is dealing
with a light traffic load.

■

A bandwidth utilization of 26–85% indicates that the port is
dealing with a normal traffic load.

■

A bandwidth utilization of 86–100% indicates that the port is
dealing with a heavy traffic load. This could be caused by a fault in
your network, or an inadequate network configuration.

■

The Total Errors graph scales automatically to display the total number
of packets with errors that have been seen on the port over the last
hour and last 48 hours.

■

The Packet Size Distribution graph displays the proportion of packets
of certain sizes seen by the port over the last 30 seconds.
